    English for Specific Purposes (ESP): What is Business English?
    (Suleyman Demirel University, 2008) Melike Yılmaz
    This article discusses Business English as a branch of English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and its growing importance in global communication. Business English is defined as the specialized use of English in professional and commercial contexts, focusing on effective communication rather than grammatical accuracy. It includes vocabulary and topics related to trade, finance, marketing, management, and international relations. As most business interactions today occur between non-native speakers, both native and non-native users need training in using English appropriately in global settings. The article also emphasizes the teacher’s role as a facilitator who understands corporate culture, business terminology, and cross-cultural communication. Business English teaching must be based on learners’ specific professional needs, helping them apply English in realistic work situations. Therefore, Business English serves not only as a linguistic skill but also as a professional competence essential for success in international business environments.
