THE ROAD TO MODERN ENGLISH

At the end of 16th century , about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer 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.

Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don’t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example :

British Betty : Would you like to see my flat?

American Amy : Yes, I’d like to come up to your apartment.

So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At first, the English spoken in England between about AD450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was based more on German than the English we speak at present. Then graduallybetween about AD800 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. So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620, some British s settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia too. English began to be spoken in both countries.

Finally by the 19the century, the language was settled. At that time two big 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 to American English spelling.

English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and education. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasingly rapidly. In fact, China may have the largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell.

在16世纪末，约五至七百万人讲英语。几乎所有的这些住在英格兰。在下一世纪，人们从英格兰开始移动到世界其他地方，因此，英语开始被发言，在许多其他国家。今天，越来越多的人讲英语作为他们的第一，第二或外语比以往任何时候都。中国可能有人数最多的英语发言。

本土英语发言可以了解对方，即使他们没有讲同种英语。不过，他们可能无法理解的一切。举例来说，英国的人可能会说她的朋友， “请你来我单位进行了访问” ？之一，她的美国朋友可能，然后问她， “来了哪里？ ”她加拿大的朋友，或许可以解释， “她手段，我们应该拿出她的公寓“ 。

那么，为何有英语改变，随着时间的推移？所有语言的变化时，文化的互相沟通。该英语口语之间的大约450名和1150年是非常不同的从英语在今天发言。实际上，它是基于对德国更比现今的英语。然后从约1150年至1500年英语改变，甚至更多。它成为不像德国，更象法国，因为那些谁统治英格兰在那个时间以法语。它成为更接近的语言，你现在正在学习。在1600年的，莎士比亚使用一个更广泛的词汇比以往任何时候都一大的变化，在英语用法发生诺亚韦伯斯特写道，美国字典中的英语语言，使美国英语自己的身份。后来，当一些英国民众前往澳大利亚，英语开始被发言。现在澳大利亚英语有其自己的身份。

英语口语亦是作为一个外国或第二语言，在南亚地区。印度有一个非常大量的英语发言。这是因为英国统治印度从1765年至1947年。在这段时间，英语成为语言为政府和教育。英语口语也是在很多其他国家的非洲和亚洲，如南非，新加坡和马来西亚。在中国，英语已在香港使用的自约1842年。今天有多少人学习英语的人数迅速增加..中国英语将成为世界上其中一个英语？只有时间会告诉我们。
