Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and municate with each other. At first the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was based more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD 800 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoken first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia too. English began to be spoken in both countries.那么，隨著時間的推移英語為什么發(fā)生了變化呢？實際上，當不同文化相互交流滲透時，所有的語言都會有所發(fā)展和變化。Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English Language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling.最后到19世紀的時候，英語這種語言就變得穩(wěn)定了。中國式英語是否也能發(fā)展成一種具有自己獨特個性的語言？這還有待時間去證明。 地理位置對方言的形成也有所影響。所以她問問了路，然后告訴她的朋友。 my sister doesn39。我問姐姐：“我們要去哪里？”首先想到要沿湄公河從源頭到終點騎車旅行的是我的姐姐。她給了我一個堅定的眼神—這種眼神表明她是不會改變主意的。起初，河很小，河水清澈而冷冽，然后它開始快速流動。最后，湄公河三角洲的各支流流入中
