The language we call English derives primarily
from languages spoken in England for only around
1,500 years ago.The land now known as England was
invaded by several tribes known as the
Angles,Jutes,and Saxons.The name England is
derived from Anglesland,and the English language
comes principally from a combination of the
dialects spoken by these three tribes.

English is a young language. It grew from
other languages,such as German and French.People
began to write it down only about six hundred
years ago.Now it is spoken by people all over the
world.It is the international business
language.However,English is not exactly the same
in different countries.American people speak
English,but it is a little bit different from
British English.Today,we are going to read about
those differences.
