English Grammar in Use – Evolution of Grammar
English can claim to be one of the richest languages. In any case, it is the most widely spoken language in the World. It is interesting to note that English has always evolved and is still evolving with new words being added and grammar undergoing changes in line with contemporaneous usage. You can say English is of recent origins if you compare it to Sanskrit, one of the ancient languages no longer in common use. English language draws from Anglo Saxon customs. It has some of its roots in the Celtic cultures of Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Then again, England was besieged by invaders from the Continent who spoke a mixture of German, Dutch and Scandinavian languages that all had an influence on the language. This is one reason for the way some words are spelt and pronounced, even to this day. If that is not enough, the Normans from across the Channel conquered England and their brand of French as well as Latin left indelible marks on English and enriched it still more while adding twists and turns in grammar and usage. By the sixteenth century English language was well defined but was still evolving. Meanwhile England started colonizing other parts of the World even as the language dropped some usages while gaining new ones. Today’s English is a far cry from that used in the sixteenth century. American English is partly responsible as is the contribution of the Colonies. The language has become enriched but grammar has become convoluted and not easy to unravel; at least not for the less educated.
