Historical development of the English language. Андрей Тихомиров

Аннотация:

The English language belongs to the group of West Germanic languages (Indo-Europeans). It is the result of the development of the language of the Angles, Saxons and Jutes – Germanic tribes who migrated to Britain in the 5th century. The population of Britain at that time was made up of Celtic tribes – Britons and Gaels.
