The document summarizes the development of the English language from its origins to modern times. Germanic tribes like the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes invaded Britain and brought their Germanic language. Their language mixed with Latin and Celtic languages and over time developed into Old English. Later influences like the Normans, Renaissance, printing press, and dictionaries helped transform Old English into Middle English and then Modern English.
