Do You Speak English XS?

English XS Box

Not all companies speak your language.

When opportunity knocks, you need a company that knows how to say “Come in! Have a brandy! Let’s discuss emerging markets!”.

That’s why we patented the English language. It was knocking on our door. And we answered.

In English.

Naturally.

Some in the West are concerned that our de facto ownership of global discourse may cause problems for communication and free speech. That is because they are commies. Nevertheless, we do not take our responsibilities as the planet’s semantic hegemon lightly. We have guaranteed royalty-free access to the right to read until at least 2015. And for those who want to talk and write, we have a range of language products to suit everybody’s brain. And if you don’t like that, you can always go and learn Mandarin Chinese, can’t you?

Welcome to the world of English XS.
