Abstract: The present study is an attempt to offer a bird‟s eye view into the relationship between professional English, meaning English for Specific Purposes (ESP) and English for General Purposes (EGP) or 6General English (GE), stressing the difficulties that may appear on the road. There are opinion discrepancies regarding the differences that exist/do not exist between Business English teaching and General English teaching. Therefore, the general purposes and distinctive features are examined to draw a parallel between ESP and EGP to present their common and specific characteristics.
