Latin has had a significant influence on the English language, providing many loan words. English began borrowing Latin words during Britain's contact with the Roman civilization, incorporating terms related to agriculture and war. When Christianity came to Britain in 597 AD, more Latin words were borrowed to describe new religious concepts. The translation of the Vulgate Bible in the Middle Ages introduced words like "generation" and "persecution". During the Renaissance, Latin words flooded English texts. Today, Latin continues to be a source of technical and scientific terms in fields like medicine. While Latin loan words expanded the English vocabulary by filling gaps, some argue that excessive use of Latin stunted the growth of native English words.

The indo european family of languages
This document discusses the Indo-European family of languages. It is made up of around 140 languages descended from a common ancestral language. The major branches include: Indo-Iranian (Indic and Iranian languages), Hellenic (Greek), Italic (Latin-based languages), Germanic, Celtic, Tocharian, Baltic, Slavic, Armenian, and Albanian. The document outlines some of the structural features like phonology, morphology and syntax that are used to identify relationships between languages in the Indo-European family.
Changing of meaning
This document discusses the changing of word meanings over time through semantic change. It notes that word meanings rarely change suddenly, but usually develop new related meanings gradually. It identifies different types of semantic change, such as changes in denotation like generalization or specialization, and changes in connotation like amelioration or pejoration. The document also examines various causes of semantic change, including linguistic causes from habitual word usage, historical causes as concepts change over time, social causes from language shifting between registers, and psychological and foreign influence causes. New needs for names to describe new objects or concepts can also drive changes in word meaning.
Nineteenth century and after
The document discusses the major influences on the English language from the 19th century onwards. It notes that during this period:
- The industrial revolution transformed Britain and led to rapid urbanization, changing social structures.
- Scientific and technological advances introduced many new terms related to medicine, electricity, automobiles, movies, radios, and wars. New words were also borrowed from other languages.
- Events like cheap newspapers and postage in the 1800s increased opportunities for sharing information and influenced language.
- The Oxford English Dictionary was a monumental work in the late 1800s that systematically documented the English language.
- English became an international language used widely around the world in the 20th century.
(1) lexical semantics 1
Semantics is the study of meaning in language. The term "semantics" comes from the Greek word for "sign" and was coined in the late 19th century to refer to the study of meanings. While meanings of words can be complex, semantics aims to understand how language conveys meaning through terms, signs, context, and intent. The field examines how meanings are constructed and understood between speakers.
Translation loss and gain
This document discusses translation loss that can occur at different linguistic levels when translating between languages. It identifies inevitable loss, which occurs due to differences between the language systems, and avertable loss, which is due to failures by the translator. Translation loss can happen at the morphological, syntactic, semantic, textual, and stylistic/rhetorical levels. Specific examples are provided like tense and aspect in English versus Arabic, conditions, cultural concepts, coordination vs subordination between the languages, and translating metaphors. The document aims to raise awareness of the various challenges in translation between languages.
The development of english grammar
The document discusses the development of English grammar from its West Germanic origins through four main stages of change. It began with the arrival of West Germanic tribes in Britain in the 5th century. English grammar was then influenced by Norse invaders in the 9th-10th centuries, Norman French invaders in the 11th century, and scholars in the 16th-17th centuries who helped standardize the rules of English grammar. English grammar continues to evolve and change in the 21st century.
Constituency, Trees and Rules
This document provides an overview of syntax and constituency. It begins by defining syntax as the study of rules governing how words are combined to form sentences. The class will cover syntactic structure and the rules that determine this structure. Phrase structure rules specify constituents and how they are ordered to form phrases. Syntactic trees provide a visual representation of constituents and their hierarchical structure. Rules can apply recursively to generate complex sentences. Deep structure refers to the underlying meaning of sentences that may have different surface structures. Structural ambiguity occurs when one surface structure has multiple possible deep structures.

Christopher marlowe
Christopher Marlowe was an influential English dramatist born in the same year as Shakespeare. He is known for plays like Tamburlaine, Doctor Faustus, The Jew of Malta, and Edward II. Tamburlaine tells the story of Timur and his conquests across Asia. Doctor Faustus depicts the story of a scholar who sells his soul to the devil for knowledge and power. The Jew of Malta centers around a money lender named Barabas. Edward II is Marlowe's most developed play and examines the downfall of the weak King Edward II.
Equivalencein translation
This document discusses concepts of equivalence and similarity in translation. It begins by defining equivalence and similarity, noting that similarity is not necessarily symmetrical, reversible, or transitive. It then examines approaches to equivalence in translation theory, including the equative view, taxonomic view, and relativist view which rejects equivalence as an identity assumption. Models of equivalence proposed by Vinay and Darbelnet, Jakobson, and Nida are outlined, noting tensions between formal correspondence and dynamic equivalence. The document emphasizes that equivalence is a complex concept that depends on context and perspective.
South Asian Englishes
1. South Asian Englishes refers to the varieties of English spoken in South Asia, which developed due to British colonialism and the continued use of English in government, education, and business in the region.
2. English has taken on new roles and meanings in South Asia, with locals claiming ownership over how they speak the language. While English teaching aims for standard British pronunciation and grammar, the languages inevitably interact, producing new vocabulary, pronunciations, and grammatical features.
3. South Asian English varieties are characterized by features like code-switching, question tags with "isn't" and "isn't it", dropping initial consonant clusters, and borrowing or calquing words from local languages.
Taufiq rafat
Toufiq Rafat was a pioneer of Pakistani poetry in English, using the language to express local Pakistani sensibilities rather than British influences. His first collection "Arrival of Monsoon" established a Pakistani idiom and shifted away from portraying only British themes and concepts. Rafat innovatively employed nature, man-nature relationships, and war themes in a uniquely Pakistani context, laying the foundation for original Pakistani expression in English literature.
Untranslatability in translation
This document discusses untranslatability in translation. It defines untranslatability and identifies two main types - linguistic and cultural. Examples are provided of untranslatability due to register, grammar, vocabulary, family relations, puns/wordplay, and procedures that can help compensate for untranslatability, such as adaptation, borrowing, calque, compensation, paraphrase, and translator's notes.
Great vowel shift
A major change in the pronunciation of vowels took place in England between 1400- 1700. It was limited to only the English language. This presentation explains eight steps that led to the complete vowel shift.
Traditional grammar
- Traditional grammar is a prescriptive framework that describes language based on Latin rules of grammar rather than descriptive analysis of modern English usage.
- It focuses on elements like parts of speech, subjects, predicates, objects, clauses, adverbs, adjectives, verbs, nouns and conjunctions based on traditional definitions and categories.
- While traditional grammar has flaws and limitations, it remains an important part of teaching English language skills in schools, and does not need wholesale replacement but rather amendments to reflect contemporary linguistic understanding.
Presentaion on Changes in English Language During Renaissance
The document summarizes the changes that occurred to the English language during the Renaissance period. Key changes included developments in grammar with new words like "kingly" and "manual", shifts in pronunciation of vowels like "a" and "e", changes in spelling of words, and a major expansion of the vocabulary with thousands of new words entering the English lexicon being borrowed from Latin and Greek. The Renaissance brought a flood of new knowledge and ideas that impacted the development of English.
Foreign influences on old english
The document discusses three major influences on the English language: Celtic, Latin, and Scandinavian. It analyzes the influence of each in detail, noting the influx of vocabulary from each source, especially place names from Celtic and religious/scholarly terms from Latin. The Scandinavian influence is discussed in the context of the Viking invasions, noting sound changes like the retention of hard 'k' and 'g' sounds in borrowed words. Overall, the document provides an overview of the three key external influences that shaped the early development of the English language.
Stylistics
This document provides an introduction to stylistics as a branch of linguistics. It defines key concepts such as style, defines stylistics as the scientific study of styles of language use, and outlines the main levels of linguistic description used in stylistic analysis such as phonology, lexis, syntax and semantics. It also discusses the scope of stylistics in literary versus general texts and its development over time.

Discourse Analysis
The document provides an overview of discourse analysis, including its origin, importance, differences between text and discourse, linguistic functions, cohesive devices, interpersonal functions, conventions of conversations, cooperative principle, and background knowledge. It discusses how discourse analysis was first employed by Zelling Harris and defines discourse analysis as the study of how stretches of language used in communication assume meaning, purpose and unity for their users.
Intro to-stylistics
- Stylistics is the scientific study of style in written and oral texts through the examination of linguistic features like grammar, vocabulary, semantics, and phonology.
- It began in the 1950s and analyzes how these linguistic aspects influence readers' understanding and perception of texts.
- Early influential books and articles on stylistics applied linguistic analysis to literary criticism and focused on determining how language shapes readers' responses.
Types of translation
This document discusses different types of translation including semantic, literal, official/technical/administrative, and functional translation. Semantic translation aims to preserve meaning and structure in the target language through interpretation. Literal translation is a word-for-word approach that can distort meaning. Official/technical translation requires subject expertise to translate specialized texts like manuals. Functional translation conveys the general meaning without preserving cultural aspects, but still communicates the intended message. Examples are provided to illustrate each type.
The growth of vocabulary- Part 1
1) The document discusses various ways that the English vocabulary has grown over time, from the addition of new words to changes in existing word meanings.
2) Some key methods described include adding prefixes or suffixes to existing words, abbreviating long words, blending parts of multiple words together, and adopting words from other languages.
3) Examples provided include scientific and technical terms growing as knowledge expanded, and everyday words like "literary" and "manufacture" changing meanings over centuries of use.
SEMANTICS
The document discusses various key concepts in semantics, including:
- Semantics is the study of meaning in language. It examines how meaning is constructed and interpreted.
- Semantic roles describe the functions that words play in sentences, such as agent, theme, and experiencer.
- Relationships between words include synonyms, antonyms, hyponyms, homophony, and polysemy. Synonyms have similar meanings, antonyms have opposite meanings, hyponyms have a broader term that includes them, and polysemy refers to a word having multiple related meanings.
- Richard Montague pioneered formal semantics which used logic to represent meanings of sentences. Semantics analyzes meaning at various linguistic levels
Pre romanticism
The document discusses Pre-Romanticism through analyzing key figures and trends that preceded and helped establish Romanticism. It outlines that Jean-Jacques Rousseau's ideas influenced both the French Revolution and Romanticism. Pre-Romanticism began in the 1740s and prepared the way for Romanticism through an emphasis on individual feeling, primitivism, and interest in nature, emotion, and the supernatural. Thomas Gray, William Blake, William Cowper, Robert Burns, and James Thomson are highlighted as important Pre-Romantic poets and artists.

History of translation in english literature
The document summarizes the history of translation in English literature from ancient times to the 20th century. It notes that the development of translation differed in the Western world compared to the Arab world. Some key events and periods mentioned include the Septuagint translation from Hebrew to Greek in the 3rd-1st centuries BC, Geoffrey Chaucer's translations in the 14th century, the importance of the printing press and developments in translation theories in the 15th-16th centuries, the use of translation as a political and religious weapon in the 16th century, John Dryden seeking to make authors "speak as if they were living Englishmen" in the 17th century, omitting parts not understood by translators in the
Early Modern English(1500-1800)
It is about the changes that take place in the English Language due to The English Renaissance, Great Vowel Shift, Printing press, The Bible, Dictionaries and Grammars, Golden age of literature, William Shakespeare and International trade.
Based on Albert.docx
Old English was influenced by Celtic, Latin, and Scandinavian languages and cultures. Celtic influence was primarily seen in place names but contributed few words. Latin had a greater impact due to Rome's advanced civilization, contributing hundreds of words related to religion, food, clothing, and other domains. Scandinavian settlement in England from the 8th-11th centuries also significantly influenced the vocabulary, with over 600 place names of Scandinavian origin.
Context of Language Change
The document discusses the history and evolution of the English language from its origins to modern times. It describes how Old English emerged after Germanic tribes invaded Britain in the 5th century AD and was later influenced by Viking invaders. It then explains how the Norman invasion in 1066 introduced French influences and led to the development of Middle English. The document also outlines the standardization of English that began in the 15th century with the introduction of the printing press and how English has continued to change and spread globally due to various social, political and technological factors over the centuries.

Late modern english
Late-Modern English has incorporated many new words due to two main factors: the Industrial Revolution and the British Empire. [1] The Industrial Revolution created a need for new technical words to describe inventions and discoveries, many formed from Latin and Greek roots or existing English roots. [2] The large British Empire introduced English words from other languages it encountered, such as Hindi, and words were adopted from virtually every language. [3] Military conflicts of the 20th century also contributed many terms to standard English from the widespread experience of military service.
Chapter2
The document discusses the history and sources of the English vocabulary. It describes how the English language originated from three Germanic tribes that invaded Britain and later merged into one people. Over time, the vocabulary was influenced by invasions from Vikings, Normans, and others, incorporating words from Latin, French, and other languages. The document categorizes words as native or borrowed and outlines the major periods of development in the English language from Old English to Modern English.
The History of English Language
The document summarizes the history of the English language in 3 periods: Old English (600-1100 AD), Middle English (1100-1500 AD), and Modern English (1500 onwards). It describes how the language evolved from Old English brought by Anglo-Saxons, to Middle English which saw influence from Norman French after the 1066 Norman invasion, to Modern English which was further influenced by the Renaissance, translations of the Bible, and invention of the printing press. The language transitioned from a mixture of dialects to a more standardized form of English over these periods.
EARLY MODERN ENGLISH.pptx
The Early Modern English period began in the late 15th century after the Middle English period. Some key events that influenced the English language during this time include the Great Vowel Shift between 1500-1700, which changed vowel pronunciations, and the Great Plague of 1665-1666, which led to a merging of lower and upper class dialects. This helped standardize the language. The Elizabethan age saw a flourishing of the language influenced by writers like Shakespeare, who coined many new words. The first English dictionaries also began appearing during this period, helping further standardize spelling and vocabulary.
Language history and change
Sir William Jones realized that Sanskrit, ancient Indian language, shared similarities with European languages like Greek and Latin. He proposed they all descended from a common ancestor, Proto-Indo-European. Proto-Indo-European influenced languages like Germanic, Celtic, Italic, and Indo-Iranian. The document then discusses evidence for Proto-Indo-European through cognates in different languages and periods of change for the English language from Old to Modern English due to multiple influences.
Brief history of English
English originated from Germanic tribes invading Britain in the 5th century AD and bringing their Anglo-Saxon language. Over centuries, English absorbed words from Latin during the Roman occupation, Old Norse from Viking invaders, and French following the Norman conquest in 1066. English became the dominant language of Britain and spread worldwide through the British Empire in the 18th-19th centuries, incorporating words from other languages. Today, English has over 1 billion speakers globally and continues to serve as a prominent international language despite having many regional varieties.
The role of borrowings in the development of the English vocabulary
This document discusses the role of borrowings in the development of the English vocabulary. It outlines the major languages that have influenced English, including Latin, French, Scandinavian, and others. Latin borrowings entered English through the church and centers of learning after the Christianization of England.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 6. IN THE RENAISSANCE PERIOD In the Renaissance the Latin words flood into English texts in overwhelming proportion. Firstly, they are twain influenced by French and Latin. Secondly, native words and French words are remodelled into closer resemblance with their Latin origins.
- 7. IN THE PRESENT-DAY SCENARIO In the present-day scenario of the technical and scientific English, Latin shares with Greek the honour of being the source of rich host of new coinages. Words like ‘coaxial’, ‘fission’, ‘interstellar’, ‘neutron’, ‘mutant’, ‘penicillin’, ‘radium’, ‘spectrum’, ‘sulfa’ etc have become an integral part of the English technical vocabulary.
