This paper presents the results of an ongoing reflection for the past two years around the debates on English and languages within an academic team in charge of a new MA program in Colombia. In this paper, the author argues that the traditional binary opposition between second and foreign language, while useful in the past, may no longer be responding to the new language ecologies that technology and social mobility, among others, are proposing. The paper will first describe the current landscape, problematizing the idea of foreign language as a matter that transcends linguistic or geographic distinctions and that, when carefully analyzed, has turned into a source for unequal language practices. Then, the discussion will turn into how the notion of second languages (in plural) espoused by the MA program has become an alternative that opens new spaces to address issues of learning and equity, while being mindful of the new social contexts that have emerged for languages today. Some implications for education and research will bookend the discussion.
