And why does the world have a single language? There is an international one, and not just one. The world perfectly communicates with their means while preserving and developing their national and ethnic languages.
Do we need to have a common language around the world?
Artificial attempts to create such a language were already there. It was called Esperanto. But he did not receive wide distribution. Today it is enough to know English, so that you can understand in any country. 
Language - a complex sign system, naturally created by the person and correlating the conceptual content and type sound (writing). The term "language", understood in a broad sense, can be applied to arbitrary sign systems, although it is more often used for narrower classes of sign systems.
Imagine the ASEAN summit where the world leaders were gathered and they all spoke their native language. Have a beer, and rethink that thought.
May be, with the New World Order...
Do we need to have a common language around the world?
So unless English is not a world language?
Yes, we need. Because not every country has same language to talk. And everyone uses mostly their mother tongue after born. But we must communicate with other countries. For this, we need a common language to communicate and so that we can express ourselves to anyone.
It is a lot more complicated than just creating one language that everyone can speak. Language is not made up only of vocabulary and grammar, the whole culture of a nation is a vital part of the language itself. Just think about expressions, idioms, and realia, these all have roots in the culture where the language is spoken in. This is one of the main causes of miscommunication when talking to a person whose native tongue is different from yours. The native language has an enormous influence when learning a foreign language. The reason why Esperanto was a failure is that there was no single culture behind it. Even with globalization, there will still be certain cultural differences between different groups of people.
Yeah but i think the common language is just a language that everyone can understand when we are speaking that language. English is already solved that problem so i don't think we need another language anymore.

Have you ever imagined how fantastic it would be if everyone spoke the same language? We would not have these barriers imposed by speech, I believe that the relation between the countries would improve, not to mention the innumerable advantages that this would bring in the cultural, musical, artistic and cinematographic aspect.
There has always been universal language (lingua franca) throughout history. Latin, Mediterranean lingua franca, French, for purpose of trade, diplomacy etc. Now days it is English. But none of these languages has ever been able to substitute mother tongue. However well you speak English as a non-native speaker you will never be able to express yourself in English in all aspects of life.

Kindness is a universal language as said by one of the beauty queens. And I think it is true. You may not understand one another's native language but through kindness and hospitality, everyone can express their feeling without saying a single word.
English is the best communication language, but I wish I could make single language in hole world..
Having the same language for the whole world provides comfort and convenience, in communicating with people from other countries. because in this world consists of many countries, and also of course have a national language that is different from one to another.

Do we need to have a common language around the world?
It would probably make communication easier for all of us that way. That may lessen the misunderstanding all over thr world. We can all agree that there are times that it becomes a barrier so having the same words would at least give us an easier time to talk things through
