The history of English language
英語的歷史
The history of the English language began over 1500 years ago in the north of Europe. Around the fifth century A.D., tribes of people known as the Angels, Saxons, and Jutes traveled west from Germany and Denmark across the North Sea. They settled in Britain, and by the late seventh century, they were speaking an early form of the English.
英語的歷史從1500多年前的北歐開始。 在公元5世紀(jì)左右，稱為天使、撒克遜和黃麻的人們的部落從德國(guó)和丹麥旅行向西過北海。 他們遷入英國(guó)，并且在7世紀(jì)末以前，他們講早期的形式英語。
In the late eighth century, the Vikings attacked England. Fighting continued for almost two hundred years. During this time, many Latin, Danish, and Norse words entered the English language. Latin gave English words like kitchen and cup. From Danish and Norse, English borrowed skin, leg, and the pronouns them, their, and they. many synonyms from the Norse language became integrated into English, for example, wrath(English),anger(Norse);sick(English),ill(Norse).
在8世紀(jì)末，斯堪的那維亞人攻占英國(guó)。 戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)持續(xù)了將近200年。 在這個(gè)時(shí)期，很多拉丁語、丹麥和古斯堪的那維亞的單詞融入英語。象炊具和杯子與生活息息相關(guān)一樣，拉丁語給了英語很多單詞。從丹麥語和古斯堪的那維亞語中，英國(guó)人借鑒過來了皮膚、腿、以及各種詞格的代詞"他們"、"他們的"。來自古斯堪的那維亞語的很多同義詞統(tǒng)一到英語中，例如，憤怒(英語的wrath和古斯堪的那維亞語的anger)；生病(英語的sick和古斯堪的那維亞語的ill)，都在英語中進(jìn)行了統(tǒng)一。
In 1066, the Normans conquered England. French became the language of the wealthy and powerful, and English was spoken mostly by poorer people. In the late fourteenth century, English became the first language again. By this time, many words used in English came from French or Latin, and a lot of the early words no longer existed.
1066年，諾曼人征服英國(guó)。 法語成為富人的語言和強(qiáng)有力的象征，但窮人主要講英語。 在14世紀(jì)末，英語再次成為第一語言。 到這時(shí)，英國(guó)人使用的很多詞匯來自法語或者拉丁語，并且許多早期的詞匯已經(jīng)不復(fù)存在。
In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, people became interested in the classics. At this time, words from Latin and Greek were included in the English language. a lot of words, or parts of words, from those languages are used in modern English. Today, English has loan words from many of the world's languages. You can probably find a word used in English that first came from your native language.
到了第16和17世紀(jì)，人們對(duì)古典作品感興趣。 在這個(gè)時(shí)期，來自拉丁語和希臘語的詞匯被歸入英語。 許多詞匯或者單詞的組成部分，從那些語言被用現(xiàn)代英語引進(jìn)使用。 今天，英語有來自大多數(shù)世界性語言的泊來單詞。 你或許能找到英語使用的某個(gè)詞匯是最先來自你的母語。
