Abstract
A strong language’s assimilation of other languages is a basic law of language development. Assimilation is manifested in the form of economic assimilation, political assimilation, cultural assimilation and educational assimilation. Language, strong or not, plays the role of advanced production force as science and technology does. In an information society, general language and strong language both play the role of advanced production force as information technology does. In China, we should promote the language production force of “Putonghua” (´¶³q¸Ü), make full use of a strong language’s law of assimilation and quicken the process of popularizing “Putonghua”.
