The History of the English Language using the article of Sammy Stein

All great creations began as an idea…

In this article the author, Sammy Stain; explain how the English language has spread all over the world since old ages and how its vocabulary is growing. The English is the second more spoken language behind of Mandarin, but that doesn’t mean that the English language has less importance in the world, is considerate the universal language and 1000 millions of people in the world speak English.

The English language has its origins in the island of the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom was invaded by the Vikings. They brought words from their language and with this the English vocabulary started to grow. The English language has a lot of words that came from other languages like Spanish or Latin. One important factor that helped the English Language for grow were the Empires, in the age of the Imperialism Great Britain controlled a lot of countries that had different language; when the British took control of a country they forced the habitants of that country to learn the English Language, but not only the habitants learned something, also the English Native speakers learned new words that took for expand the English vocabulary.

English have become the official second language of many countries as India and Canada, and this confirm that the English Language is the best language for business not only between companies also business like small stores or between 2 persons.

The article of Sammy Stain was written with the purpose to inform the people the origins of the English Language and how it has acquired a lot of words from many other languages. I agree that the English Language is combination of words that came for different languages but the most influential language was the Latin. Not only because English has a lot of Latin words, also because English is based in Latin, like other languages as Spanish.

Sammy Stain wrote and excellent article but I think that he forgot to add some important information about the number of speakers that right know use English as their first language and also as their second language (I add some of that information in this article) Another good information that could help this article for explain the expansion and the origin of the English Language could be time lines and dates for explain where the English started its develop and how it has expanded all over the world.
