Old English
The four main dialectal forms of Old English
were Mercian , Northumbrian , Kentish and
West-Saxon .
After the process of unification of the different
Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, in 878 by Alfred the
Great , there was a decline in the importance
of regional dialects, but they didn’t stop
existing.
Most of the surviving
documents from the Anglo-
Saxon period are written in
the dialect of Wessex ,
Alfred's kingdom.

Middle English
At the beginning of the 13th century
French was the language of the
enemy and English regained
importance also because it was
spoken by the merchants and
craftsmen , who formed the
emerging middle class.
The English from being
an inflective language
became analytic (the
meaning in a sentence
was given by word order
and not by form).

Middle English
The French influence was enormous.
The Middle English was spoken from1150 to
1500
It consisted of several
regional dialects. Gradually
the East Midlands dialect
became the most
important, because of the
increasing commercial and
economic importance of
London. The triangle of
Oxford , Cambridge and
London shared the same
kind of English.

Modern English
In spite of all this, the language of the
government was still French .
A turning point went when in 1415 king
Henry V used English in his official
documents. English became the language of
the kings and gradually the one of the
institutional life.
A major change in the
pronunciation of vowels
marked the transition from
Middle English to Modern
English during the 15th and
16th centuries. This change
was termed the Great Vowel
Shift .

Modern English
In the early part of the Modern English
period, the vocabulary was enlarged by
borrowings from other languages.
The revival of interest in
Latin and Greek during
the Renaissance brought
new words into English
from those languages.
Other words were
introduced by English
travellers and
merchants after their
return from journeys on
the Continent.
