Sa TEDxDubai, isang matagal nang guro sa ingles, si Patricia Ryan, ay nagtanong ng isang pamukaw na tanong: ang pagpokus ba ng mundo sa Ingles ay humahadlang sa paglaganap ng mga dakilang ideya sa ibang wika? (Halimbawa: paano kung kailangan ni Einstein na pumasa ng TOEFL?) Isa itong marubdob na pagtatanggol sa pagsasalingwika at pagbabahagi ng mga ideya.
