The Geography of the English Language

Hi my name is Sophie and this is my TY blog. In this blog I want to trace the English Language back to its roots and see what influences are behind the language we speak today. I hope to explore the different families of lanugages in Europe, how they originated and branched out over the years into the languages we use today, and particularly how other European languages influenced the English language we use today.
I also want to see how the language evolved over the years, what caused this and what old english words are still in use today.
