Background Information The Root of English:
English began as a west Germanic language which was brought to England by the Saxons around 400 A.D.Old English was the spoken and written language of England between 400 and 1100 A.D.Many words used today come from Old English, including, man, woman, king, mother etc.But Old English was very different from modern English and only a few words can be easily recognized.In the 9th and l0th centuries, when Vikings invaded England, Old Norse words, e.g.sky, take, and get and many place names, entered the language.From the Norman Conquest(1066)until the late 12th century English was replaced as the official language by Norman French, though English was still used by the lower claes.English from about 1300 to 1500 is known as Middle English.It was influenced by French and also Latin in vocabulary and pronunciation.French brought many words connected with government, e.g.sovereign, royal, court, legal and government
itself.Latin was the language of religion and learning and gave to English words such as minister, angel, master, school and grammar.Literature began again to be written in English during this period.One of the most famous Middle English works is Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales.The Development of Modern English: Modern English developed from the Middle English dialect of the East Midlands and was influenced by the English used in London, where a printing pre was set up by William Caxton in 1476.English changed a great deal from this time until the end of the 18th century.During the Renaiance, many words were introduced from Greek and Latin to expre new ideas, especially in science, medicine and philosophy.They included, physics, species, architecture, encyclopedia and hypothesis In the16th century several versions of the Bible helped bring written English to ordinary people.The Elizabethan period is also famous for its drama, and Shakespeare's plays were seen by many people.The Development of Modern English：
The development of printing helped establish standards of spelling and grammar but there remained a lot of variation.Samuel Johnson’s A Dictionary of the English Language was the first authoritative treatment of English.It defined about 40000 words and gave examples of their first use.By the 18th century American English was established and developed independently from British English.After colonists arrived in the US new words began to be added from Native American languages，and from French and Spanish.In 1783 soon after Johnson’s dictionary was published，Noah Webster’s The elementary spelling book was published in the USA.At first it used Johnson’s spellings, but late editions contained many of what have come to be known as American spellings, e.g.Harbor and favorite.20th Century English：
During the 19th and early 20th centuries many dictionaries and books about language were published New words are still being added to English from other languages，including Chinese(feng shui)and Japanese(karaoke).Existing words gain new senses and new expreions spread quickly through television and the Internet.English is now an international language and is used as a means of communication between people from many countries.As a result the influences on the English language are wider than ever and it is poible that World English will move away from using a British or American standard and establish its own international identity．
Norman：
Norman refers to any of the people from Normandy in northern France who settled in England after their leader William defeated the English king at the Battle of Hastings in 1066.The Normans took control of the country, a proce known as the Norman Conquest.They used many of the existing Anglo-Saxon methods of government of the state and the church, but added important aspects of their own and made government much more effective.The language of government became first Latin, and then Norman French and this caused many new words to be added to the existing English language.Warming-up questions: 1.How long have you been learning English? 2.Do you think English is difficult to learn?
