English Grammar

Más información sobre el libro

English is (and always has been) in a state of change. If we consider the root as Old English, the influence of Latin, Norse, Norman French and courtly French is obvious, but what about the influence of German kings or East European immigrants, of settlers in, and migrants from, former colonies and possessions in all five continents? The change occurs constantly, slowly and often unobserved - it is important to remember that it has not brought the language to a state of perfection, then stopped, but is still happening all around us.
