The history of the English language spans over 1,500 years, beginning with Old English (circa 450-1150 AD) brought by Germanic tribes such as the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. This period saw the influence of Latin due to Roman occupation and Norse due to Viking invasions. Middle English (1150-1500 AD) emerged after the Norman Conquest of 1066, incorporating Norman French vocabulary. Early Modern English (1500-1700 AD) was shaped by the Renaissance, the printing press, and Shakespeare’s contributions, leading to standardized spelling and grammar. Modern English (1700-present) evolved with global colonization and technological advancements, continuously adapting and expanding.
