How Did The English Language Begin?
English is considered a member of the Indo-European family of languages.French,Italian,German,Norwegian and Greek are other languages belonging to this family.English is a member of the "West Teutonic" branch from the various branch of the Indo-European family.This language actually dates from about the middle of the fifth century.In that time invaders from across the north-sea conquered the native Celts and settled on the island now known as Great Britain.
The history of English language is divided into three periods:Anglo-Saxon (400-1100 A.D),Middle English (1100-1500 A.D),Modern English (1500 A.D-present day).The original language spoken in English was Celtic.The Norsemen invaded England and they introduced a Scandinavian element into the language and this way a German language became a part of English.
After that "Norman" language influenced the language and a language quite different from Anglo-Saxon developed and became the chief source of modern English.
