文章主要介绍了英语语言的起源、发展变化、形成原因, 以及它的发展趋势。 At the end of the 16th century, about 5 to 7 million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England.
Later in the next century, people from England madevoyages to take control of other parts of the world and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other
countries. Today, more people speak English as their first,second or a foreign language than ever before. However, native English speakers can understand each other even
though they don't speak the same kind of English.返回
So why has English changed over time? Actually all
languages change and develop when cultures meet andcommunicate with each other. The English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very
different from the English spoken today. It was based moreon German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD 800 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers
enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary.返回
So by the 1600's Shakespeare was able to make use of a
wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some Britishsettlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some
British people were taken to Australia too. English began tobe spoken in both countries.
返回
By the 19th century the language was settled finally.At that time two great changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English Language. The latter gave a separate
identity (特性) to American English spelling.
返回
English now is spoken as a foreign or secondlanguage in South Asia as well. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa
such as South Africa. In fact, China may have the largestnumber of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell. 返回
