THE ROAD TO MODERN ENGLISHAt the end of the 16th century,about five to seven million people spoke English.Nearly all of them lived in English.Later in the next century,people from English 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 befor.Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don't speak the same kind of English.Look at this example:Would you like to see my flat?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 AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today.It was based more on 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 esoecially its vocabylary.So by the 1600's Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before.In 1620 some British settlers moved to Ameriva.Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia too.English began to be spoken in both countries.优质解答
通往现代英语之路
16世纪末,大约500到700万人说英语.他们其中大部分住在英国.17世纪,英国人开始航海去征服世界的其他国家,正因为这个,英语开始在许多别的国家被说.今天,越来越多的人把英语当做母语、第二语言或是外语.以英语为母语的人可以很好的理解彼此尽管他们可能说的有点不同.比如:“你想看看我的家吗?”“我很乐意去你的公寓.”那么,为什么英语随着时间推移而改变?事实上,当发生文化碰撞或是有语种间的交流时说有的语言都会发生改变和发展.最初,在公元450年到1150年英国人说的英语和现在人们说的英语有很大的不同.那时的英语更像德语.在大约公元800年到1150年,由于英国被先后被丹麦、法国所统治,英语开始不那么像德语了.新的居住者丰富了英语词汇,所以到1600年莎士比亚得以运用更多的词汇去创作.在1620年,一些英国居民移民到美国,18世纪后,一些英国人也被带到了澳大利亚.英语便开始在这两个国家开始流行.
