@@melaninqueen2413 Spanish originated from *vulgar Latin, meaning inproper Latin spoken as regional dialects in the territories of the Roman empire, which was different from the Imperial Latin used in Rome's capitals and Major cities. Also, English is a Germanic language, originating from the Angles and Saxon tribes who settled in Roman Britain and eventually seized power after the Roman Empire fell. The two tribes later became a collective, simply referred to as the Anglo-Saxons. While English does have some borrowed words from Latin, it's ignorant to say that English "Originates" from Latin, because it doesn't. It Originates from the Germanic people, specifically the Angles and the Saxons. Also, while Norman French did have some influence on English, it's stupid to say English "Originated" from the Norman's, because, again, it didn't. The Normans themselves were French speaking Vikings who were most likely a mixture of Frankish/Gaulish Germanic people, along with some other ancestry's

When you think of "Latin" you usually think of the Imperial language of the Roman Empire...British Latin however, isn't exactly the same thing.

I was not able to understand anything before the 15th century...

I feel like this video, great though it is, has neglected the transition from old to middle English. It jumps from c.10th century English to c. late 14th century, and the two forms are dramatically different. So… I decided to bridge the gap! Here are two intermediate stages of the language, which can be described as Transition English (or Semi-Saxon) and Early Middle English, respectively. c.1150: In þe bordes middle, wiþ wefen riften uppon þe walle, wæs an setl under selde, and þǽr sat an lafediȝ faȝer tó beséon, and alse wæs sce in maȝdenhád swá þe kynge þæt Edmund wénde þe sce wæs of his néhste kynne.

I’d like to emphasise I still really enjoyed the video - this is a fascinating demonstration of how English has evolved, and the pronunciation is, for the most part, very good. Also, great choice of sample text!

Orthography in Modern English is a mess (since it's still based on Middle English pronunciations) and the amount of loans and roots from different languages (with sometimes abnormal rules as far as pluralization and such) makes learning it a headache for people not coming from a Germanic or Romance language. But grammatically, it's greatly simplified from Old English due to the Norse and Brythonic influences drastically trimming the case system and making grammar overall easier. If English had modern spellings and vocabulary, but with preserved Old English grammar, it would probably be the perfect nightmare to learn (all it'd be missing is tones)

As a welsh speaker, I recognised many words and phrases in the British Celtic part. It’s incredible that the language has evolved, keeping many words!

This video was nothing but, music to my ears! The accents, and the pronunciations, were truly spot on.

What once was an island dialect of Proto-Germanic spoken by some obscure tribe has evolved into a complex and sophisticated language, influenced by many others, now spoken all over the world and the INTERNET by millions of people, and many more as a lingua franca.

On the contrary I think the old Germanic was much more sophisticated just like the old proto Indoeuropean language. What has happened is that the language has shed a lot of complexity and become much more simple and less sophisticated. Just listen to the language and you can instantly appreciate the richer tonality etc I dont know anything about linguistics but can instantly see a brighter more complex fabric of a language in front of me.

As a passionate about History, i find this video is very learningly. It is interesting to read, listen to the origins of English. It's kinda poetic to hear the very ancient English. I was smiling at the Old Norman part. I'm belgian ( i speak french ) haha. btw, sorry for my english, haha. Thanks to sharing us this great one.

Someone said in English "German is a stupid language, no one should ever speak it"... The language they're speaking is originated from German....Such a brave thing to say!

For those saying the Old English segment is hard to see as anything like today’s English, bear in mind that the way the words are written is different, and that large portions of the words in the passage still exist, albeit evolved. For the last sentence, for instance, I had comparatively little trouble understanding (5:25): ...tō findan thæt he hæfde setl at the cyninges meteborde amang allum þissum folcum swā hēaum and fægrum. ...to find that he had settle (“seat”) at the king’s meet board (“table”) among all these folk so high and fair. Even for much of the first sentence of that paragraph, it was not especially hard to see what was being said, especially since modern English still has many of the same words (5:25): Onbufan hiere brūwe hiere hēafod... wæs wiþ cæppan of silfrene... Modern English: Above her brow her head...was with cap of silver... With a little digging and with some sharpened ears, it’s not so hard to see the resemblance. The grammar is definitely more complex, but even if you look at Shakespeare’s works, it’s not so hard to see how English’s grammar didn’t just change like that overnight.

Absolutely lovely video to listen to. Love your narration, pronunciation and just the sound of your voice in general. Wish you would have narrated a little contextual understanding or set-up before each section. As in explaining what changes were taking place with each evolution or iteration of the language. All in all it was a fantastic video. I enjoyed hearing the melodic quality of the older versions and that of your voice as well. Now all we need to do is get you, Simon Whistler, of the "Today I Found Out" Channel, Simon Roper, or Leornand Eald Englisc, together in 1 spot to do a collab!! Some of these other channels talk about the differences but none of them do a thorough enough job (all in one sitting) for me to make heads or tails of what they are describing. Not a slight towards any of them. In fact I LOVE each and every one of their channels. It's just that I wish they would provide viewers with more spoken demonstrations all at once.

As an admirer of languages, I observe the small changes and adaptations people apply when they speaking english coloquially. People make "mistakes" when speaking, sometimes not even mistakes, but speak their manner on purpose, to ease the process. Then somehow it spreads throughout society and, in due time, that little change becomes part of the language. For example, if I would try to predict future English, the language would probably put in scarcity the verb "to be", for we see many people today say "you is my friend", reducing the number of conjugations of that verb to 1; or even more profoundly, sometimes you hear "you my friend", probably due to a strongly contracted pronunciation of the verb "are", after "you", unnoticeable to the listener. That´s a cool thing to see, cause as linguists know, languages tend to simplify theirselves through time, and that´s exactly what´s happening. Talking about simplification, we can´t forget about the great number of words with unpronounced letters in them. "Though", may become "tho", or even "do" (if we consider that the fricative sound in english is losing popularity), "tough" into "tuff" (why not? everyone native english speaker can read that naturally and notice the pronunciation is the same). So, for an example, my prediction is English will be like this (in more or less 100 years)[only removing the unnecessary letters]: "As an admira of languages, I observ da smal changes and adaptations peepo apli wen dey speekn english coloquialy. Peepo mayk "mistayks" wen speekn, sumtims not evn mistayks, but speek deir maner on purpus, to eez da proces".
