ဘာသာရပ္တစ္ခုသည္နိုင္ငံတစ္နိုင္ငံ၊လူမ်ိဳးတစ္မ်ိဳး၊ယဥ္ေက်းမွဳတစ္ခု၏ေျမပံုျပလမ္းတစ္ခုျဖစ္ပါသည္။ထိုဘာသာကေျပာပါတယ္သင္တုိ႔ဘယ္ကဆင္းသက္လာလဲျပီးေတာ႔သူတို႔ဘယ္ကိုသြားၾကမလဲလို႔ေမးထားတာပါ။
By being said that “English is the road map of a culture. It tells you where come from and where they are going." ( by Rita Mae Brown, Staring from Scratch, 1988)

English, which is classified as an Indo- Eropean Language, has beeen marked by the mixing of many Linguistic layers since its orgins more than 5,000 years ago. The English vocabulary has absorbed words from a variety of people and cultures: The Angles and Saxons from the Germanic regions of Erope, the Romans from Italy, who used Latin, The Vikings from Denmark, and the Normans from France. The English Language has had three states of development: Old English ( c.500-1150), Middle English (c. 1150-1500), and Mordern English (1500 to present). Middle English , the written and spoken English used in England between about 1150 and 1500, had many dialects. However, after Willliam Caxton introduced the printing pressin 1476 , the Landon dialects of Middle English came to be used through England and especially in written works.
