    The document provides a brief history of the English language in 3 sentences: The English language originated many years ago in the 5th century AD when various Germanic tribes including the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes migrated to Britain and their language Anglo-Saxon began to merge with the native British Celtic languages. In 1066, the Norman invasion brought Old French vocabulary and grammatical elements to English. Over time, English continued to absorb and borrow words from other languages it came into contact with such as Latin, Greek, and languages from the places English colonizers reached like Australia, Africa, and the Americas.
