The document summarizes the history of the English language in three periods:
Old English spanned from 449-1100 AD when Germanic tribes invaded England and established their language. Middle English lasted from 1100-1500 AD when French rule brought changes after the Norman conquest. Modern English emerged from 1500 onward as the printing press standardized spelling and increased literacy and travel influenced the language.
- The English language originated with Germanic tribes like the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes invading Britain in the 5th century AD and displacing the native Celtic language. Their language was called Old English.
- In 1066, William the Conqueror invaded England from Normandy bringing Norman French, which became the language of royalty and nobility. English became dominant again in the 14th century but incorporated many French words.
- Major changes from 1500-1800 included the Great Vowel Shift in pronunciation and the adoption of many new words from Britain's global expansion and the Renaissance, helping standardize the language.
The history of the English language began with the invasion of Britain in the 5th century AD by three Germanic tribes from Germany and Denmark, whose language developed into Old English. From the 11th century, following the Norman invasion, French influences led to the emergence of Middle English. By the late 15th century, after the printing press was introduced, the London dialect became standardized as Early Modern English. The industrial revolution and Britain's global influence have since contributed to vocabulary growth and the evolution of Late Modern English.
This document introduces the relevance of studying the history of the English language for teaching English as a foreign language. It outlines how English originated from Bronze Age Britain but was largely replaced by Celtic languages until Germanic tribes introduced their language between 500-600 AD. The document asks why knowledge of the origins and development of English words, grammar, influential figures like Alfred the Great would be important for ESL teachers, and lists several potential reasons including being able to answer students' questions about word origins and better understanding variations in English across cultures.
The document summarizes the history and development of the English language from its origins to modern times. It describes how English evolved from Old English spoken by Germanic tribes who invaded Britain in the 5th century AD, to Middle English after the Norman conquest in 1066 introduced French influences, to Early Modern English with the Great Vowel Shift and globalization through the British Empire, and finally to modern English with influences from around the world and its emergence as a global language. The key influences that shaped English over time included invasions and settlements by Germanic tribes and Vikings, the Norman conquest, pronunciation changes, and the spread of English through imperialism and globalization.
The document provides a history of the English language from its origins with the Celts in 500BC through its development and changes over time due to influences from the Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, and Normans. It discusses the impact of significant events like the Norman invasion of 1066 and the introduction of the printing press in the late 15th century. Key periods that shaped the language include the Renaissance, the Industrial Revolution, and the 20th century. The document also touches on theories of language change and the development of spelling rules and standards over the centuries.
The document provides a brief history of the English language from Old English to Modern English. It describes three main stages: Old English from the 7th to 11th century which had many inflections; Middle English from 1150-1500 which saw a transition and loss of inflections; and Modern English from 1500 to present which is closer to Middle than Old English but with differences in spelling and pronunciation. It also notes some differences between British and American English vocabulary and spelling.
English originated as a West Germanic language spoken in England that has evolved over 1400+ years into a global language. It developed from Old English spoken by Germanic tribes between the 5th-11th centuries CE into Middle English between the 8th-15th centuries CE with the Norman invasion influencing its transformation. Modern English emerged around 1500 CE and has continued changing with vocabulary additions and structure simplification, becoming a lingua franca used internationally in business, education and entertainment.

- English originated from Germanic tribes invading Britain in the 5th century AD and bringing their Germanic language, which developed into Old English. Latin was introduced when the Romans invaded Britain.
- Between the 11th-15th centuries, English changed dramatically due to the Norman invasion, which introduced thousands of words from French into the language. This period saw the development of Middle English.
- Modern English emerged in the 16th century with global exploration and trade introducing words from other languages and authors like Shakespeare helping standardize the language. English continues spreading widely due to British colonialism, American cultural influence, and use in business and online communication.
The document discusses the history and origins of the English language. It began with the Germanic tribes conquering Britain and settling there in the 5th century AD. These tribes did not immediately adopt a new language upon arrival. English belongs to the Indo-European language family and is in the Germanic branch, making it closely related to German, Dutch, and Scandinavian languages. Similarities between words in English and other Indo-European languages with shared meanings show their ancestral connections.
The document provides a brief history of the English language from its origins to modern times. It discusses the traditional periods of Old English, Middle English, and New English. The English language originated from Germanic tribes who invaded Britain in the 5th century AD, including the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. Their language, Anglo-Saxon, was the basis of Old English. Middle English emerged between the 11th-15th centuries after the Norman invasion in 1066. New English developed from the 15th century onward and is the direct predecessor of modern English.
The document provides a history of the English language and how it became a global language. It discusses how English originated from various roots and became the working language of the global village due to factors like British colonialism, the power of the United States, and increasing need for international communication. The document also analyzes the three concentric circles of English - the inner circle where it is a first language, the outer circle where it is a second language, and the expanding circle where it is a foreign language. It notes how non-native English speakers now outnumber native speakers.
The inhabitants of Britain originally spoke Celtic languages, but these were displaced by Germanic tribes who arrived in the 5th century AD, including the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. Over the next few centuries, dialects developed in different Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. In the 7th-8th centuries, Northumbria's language dominated Britain, but Viking invasions in the 9th century ended this. After the Norman conquest in 1066, French became dominant until English reemerged in the 14th century. Since the 16th century, contact with other peoples and the Renaissance added many new words to the language from Latin and other sources.
The document discusses the development of the English language from 1900 to present day. It notes that a large number of scientific and technological words have been added to the vocabulary in a short period of time, using Greek and Latin roots. World Wars I and II helped reduce differences between regional accents. The rise of technology and the British Empire were two key factors that contributed many new words to the language.
English evolved from Old English spoken by Anglo-Saxons in Britain beginning in the 5th century AD. It was influenced by Latin during Roman occupation, Old Norse with Viking invasions, and Old French following the Norman Conquest in 1066. During the Middle English period from 1150-1450, English absorbed large amounts of French and Latin vocabulary. The spread of the British Empire in the 18th-19th centuries established English as a global language, adopting words from other languages. Today, English continues to diversify with many regional varieties while maintaining its role as an international lingua franca.
The history of the English language began with the invasion of Britain in the 5th century AD by three Germanic tribes - the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. They drove the native Celtic speakers west and north and brought their Germanic language, which developed into Old English. In 1066, William the Conqueror invaded and the Norman French language became dominant for a time among ruling classes. English re-emerged as dominant by the 14th century. As the British Empire expanded, English adopted words from many other languages and varieties of English emerged around the world. Today American English is particularly influential globally due to US cultural exports.
The history of the English language began with Germanic tribes invading Britain and bringing Old English in the 5th century, replacing the local Celtic language. In the 11th century, Norman French was introduced after the Norman conquest, influencing the development of Middle English. Modern English emerged in the 15th-16th centuries due to the Great Vowel Shift and influx of words from other languages through exploration and colonization. American English developed distinct varieties from British English starting in the 17th century. English continues evolving with influences from around the world due to British imperialism and American cultural dominance.
The document summarizes changes that occurred to the English language between the 11th and 15th centuries, known as Middle English. During this period, Old English words were replaced by many French words. The language became grammatically simpler by losing some verb and noun endings. New tenses like future and perfect were introduced using words like "shall", "will", and "have". Between 1100-1500, around 1000 French words entered English across domains like home, science, arts, and law. Latin influence also introduced thousands of words from areas like law, medicine, science, and Christianity. Important works from this era include Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and William Langland's Piers Plowman.
The document discusses the history and development of the English language from its origins to modern times. It states that English originated from Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Britain by Germanic invaders and settlers from northwest Germany and the Netherlands. Over time, English was influenced by other languages like Anglo-Norman and experienced periods of change from Old English to Middle English to Modern English due to invasions and migrations that introduced new vocabularies. English is now the most widely spoken language globally.
English originated from Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Britain by Germanic invaders from northwest Germany and the Netherlands. It later absorbed vocabulary from Anglo-Norman languages after the Norman invasion in 1066. English became a widespread language used in Britain and later the world, being spoken today as a first or second language in over 60 countries. The modern English language has evolved from Old English and Middle English forms due to invasions by North Germanic and Norman peoples, which introduced new vocabulary and simplified its grammar.
The Celts were a powerful group in Europe between 750 BC to 12 BC, and were divided into warriors, Druids, and farmers. The Romans occupied Britain in 43 BC and established the colony of Britannia, Romanizing the Celtic tribes. In the 5th century, the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes came from Germany, Denmark, and the Netherlands, settling in Britain and establishing Anglo-Saxon languages and culture. In 1066, the Normans invaded England from France, bringing French language and culture to influence the development of English.
The English language has evolved over time through influences from various invading and settling groups. Celtic languages first influenced English followed by Latin during Roman rule. Old English emerged after Germanic tribes invaded between the 5th-7th centuries AD. The Norman invasion in 1066 introduced more French words to Middle English. By the Early Modern English period in the 1500s, spelling and grammar became standardized. Modern English continues evolving with influences from globalization and technology.
English has evolved over time from Germanic origins to the global language it is today. It has been influenced by Latin, French, Celtic languages and others through periods of invasion and settlement. English transitioned from a synthetic to an analytic language over time as it lost inflections and came to rely more on word order and grammatical words. There are also regional varieties of English that show influence from other languages and reflect social and political identities.
The document discusses the history and development of the English language over three main periods: Old English, Middle English, and Modern English. It describes the influences of the Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, Danish, Norman, and Latin languages. Key events included the Roman conquest of Britain, introduction of Christianity, Viking invasions, and Norman conquest in 1066. The language transitioned from Old English to Middle English during this time, taking on characteristics from these other languages through conquest and settlement.
The history of the English language can be traced back to before 100 BC when Celtic tribes inhabited Britain. In the 5th century AD, Germanic tribes invaded and introduced Old English. Old English was influenced by Viking invaders in the north. Between 1100-1450, Middle English developed as Norman French became the dominant language. Early Modern English emerged around 1470 with the introduction of the printing press. Latin had a strong influence on vocabulary. Since 1700, Late Modern English has become more standardized and similar to modern English with its widespread use globally.
English originated from Germanic dialects brought to Britain by Anglo-Saxon settlers in the 5th century. One of these dialects, Late West Saxon, became dominant and was used to write works like Beowulf. The Norman invasion of 1066 introduced changes that resulted in Middle English. A major phonetic change known as the Great Vowel Shift occurred towards the end of the Middle English period. Modern English emerged around 1550 as Britain became a colonial power and spread its language and culture globally.
This document discusses the origins and development of the English language. It begins by examining the linguistic geography of Europe prior to the arrival of English, noting that western Europe was broadly divided between Celtic-speaking areas in the south and Germanic-speaking areas in the north, with Latin spread by the Roman Empire over Celtic territories. It then discusses the various Celtic, Latin, and Germanic language groups in Europe and patterns of language contact between them. Finally, it focuses on the linguistic situation in Britain, including the Celtic and Latin languages present prior to the Anglo-Saxon migrations, and the development of early English dialects corresponding to the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms.
Old English developed from Anglo-Frisian dialects brought over by Germanic tribes like the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes between the 5th to 11th centuries. It eventually became the dominant language, displacing Celtic and Latin, and consisted of four main dialects. Old English was influenced by Old Norse in the north due to Viking invasions and settlements in the 9th century. By the 11th century, Old English had started developing distinct features from continental Germanic languages and emerged as a separate language consisting of the Northumbrian, Mercian, West Saxon, and Kentish dialects.
English originated from Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Britain by Anglo-Saxon settlers in the 5th-7th centuries AD. Old English emerged and gradually displaced Celtic languages, though it was influenced by Viking invasions between the 8th-9th centuries. After the Norman conquest in 1066, Old English was replaced by Anglo-Norman among the upper classes, introducing many French and Latin loanwords and marking the end of Old English. Middle English then developed and was spoken until the late 15th century. Modern English emerged in the late 17th century and has since spread around the world through colonization, becoming a global lingua franca especially in business and science.

This document provides a brief history of the English language from its origins to modern times in 3 periods: Old English (500-1066 AD), Middle English (1100-1500 AD), and Modern English (1500-present). It discusses the various language influences on English from Anglo-Saxon, Latin, Norse, and French. Key events like the Norman Conquest and industrial revolution contributed vocabulary from those cultures. English continued spreading internationally through British colonization and is now a global lingua franca.
English originated as a West Germanic language spoken in England that has since transformed into a global language. It originated from Old English dialects spoken by Germanic tribes between the 5th-10th centuries CE. Middle English then emerged between the 8th-12th centuries through language contact. Modern English developed from 1500 onward and grew as a global language through British colonialism and American economic and cultural influence in the 20th century. English is now considered a lingua franca and is widely spoken internationally.
The document provides a history of the English language from its Old English period through the Middle English period. Some key events in the Old English period included the Anglo-Saxon invasion and settlement of Britain in the 5th century which established English as the dominant language, as well as Viking invasions between the 8th-11th centuries. The Middle English period began after the Norman conquest in 1066 introduced Norman French, resulting in English becoming a mixture of native and French influences over time. Major developments included the loss of case systems and introduction of "s" plurals.
The English language originated with the invasion of Britain in the 5th century AD by Germanic tribes from Denmark and northern Germany, including the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. These tribes brought their Germanic languages, which developed into Old English. Old English was later influenced by the Norman invasion in 1066, which introduced French words and created Middle English. English continued to evolve with influences from the Renaissance, printing press, and contact with other languages and cultures through the British Empire, leading to Early Modern and Late Modern English. Today there are many global varieties of English.
English originated from Old English brought by Germanic settlers to Britain in the 5th century. It was influenced by Latin through the Christian church and by Old Norse through Viking invasions. The Norman conquest in the 11th century introduced French vocabulary and spelling conventions. The Great Vowel Shift marked the transition to Modern English from Middle English in the 15th century. English has since assimilated many words from other languages through British colonialism and American cultural influence, becoming a global lingua franca with a large vocabulary.

Over time, the language was influenced by the Romans, Vikings, Normans and others who invaded Britain, incorporating words from Latin, Old Norse, and French. The English language as we know it today began to take form by the 9th century during the reign of King Alfred the Great, who promoted English prose and translation of Latin works to help unify the country against Viking invasions.

2. Having emerged from the dialects
and vocabulary of Germanic
peoples—Angles, Saxons, and
Jutes—who settled in Britain in the
5th century CE, English today is a
constantly changing language that
has been influenced by a plethora of
different cultures and languages,
such as Latin, French, Dutch, and
Afrikaans.
3. The four major dialects of Old
English
• Four dialects of the Old English
language are known: Northumbrian
in northern England and
southeastern Scotland; Mercian in
central England; Kentish in
southeastern England; and West Saxon
in southern and southwestern
England.
4. Beowulf is the oldest
surviving Germanic epic and
the longest Old English poem;
it was likely composed
between 700 and 750. Other
great works of Old English
poetry include The Wanderer,
The Seafarer, The Battle of
Maldon, and The Dream of
the Rood.
6. WHY HAS THINGS
CHANGED TO MODERN
ENGLISH?
• Language changes for several reasons.
First, it changes because the needs of
its speakers change. New technologies,
new products, and new experiences
require new words to refer to them
clearly and efficiently. ... Another
reason for change is that no two
people have had exactly the same
language experience.
