"We are currently learning multiple languages at the same time The vocabulary is quite complex, and understanding the true origins of words is essential for grasping their original meanings This is why achieving fluency has been challenging for us, and we are struggling a lot in the process"

It wasn't the printing press that Johannes Gutenberg invented It was the printing press with movable type The printing press was over a century old, but movable type made each plate reusable Before, they were one-offs

Interesting, but you haven't mentioned the prevalence of Asian words thanks to mass immigration Happily we have avoided giving up our language to Arabic
Comment from : @howard1beale

English is a simplified language Try to learn to speak fluent German, Danish, Dutch, Icelandic, Swedish or Norwegian and you will understand how English, which ultimately shares the same origin as these languages, has been completely wrung out, cleaned, rinsed, patched up, re-tinted to make it a totally new language Many thanks to the Vikings, the Normans and the Angevins! The simplification goes on, what with the spelling used in the USA, the influx of African, Asian, Spanish words into US English and the steady flow of slang words entering the language and giving it a much more lively colour than the fossilized tongue of the Royals of England or of the BBC, which sounds so pretentious and ridiculous Listen to old British films from the 50s and how exotic the language was English is alive, it's moving, it's transforming itself all the time In a thousand years, if humanity still exists, it will be as different from today's language as Donald Trump's language is from the Old English spoken before the Norman conquest

Comment from : @thuisschool2353

The social media era is inventing lots of short new words of which most are derived from 'Saxon' English while words derived from Latin and French are slowly falling out of use, By the end of this century English vocabulary will be leaner and more Anglo-Saxon There are already dozens of examples of this eg Latin 'production' is replaced by Saxon based 'output' In the internet age brevity is supreme so flowery 'Renaissance' words are in decline

The time has come for us to simplify the spelling This nonsense of having a pure language it’s so classist has no place in the modern world I simplifying the spelling [as modern Italian has] will allow more people around the world to integrate With this language To all those English snobs Scholars Have the courage to move on Because it what stage was it The language, at its best??????

Hi! Awesome video! Just one observation, at 10:33 "mayor" refers to the head of a municipal government pronounced as /mɛ́jə/ ,while "major" /mɛ́jʤə/ means significant or important Just tought I'd give a heads up as I used to mix these up quite often

Comment from : @jimkennedy9242

Angels jutes and saxoens all spoke old norse Therefore, the Anglo-Saxons and the Vikings understood each other quite well and could speak to each other like a Dane and a Norwegian and a Swede can speak to each other in each other's language In fact, the Vikings did not contribute much linguistically since they already spoke Old Norse and the Angles did not come from the Netherlands but from the southern end of the Jutland peninsula

Fun fact: normans were descendants of viikings themselves, hence the name "nor(d)man" they spoke an intermingled (with british gaelic celts & germanic francs in what to become Francia / France) version of old norse
