INTRODUCTION

As we see the English language has evolved with the passing of the years and has been modernized an impressively. Descends from the English language spoken by the Germanic tribes who migrated from what is now northern Germany and parts of Denmark to the land which is called today as England. These tribes are traditionally identified with the names of Frisians, Angles, Saxons and Jutes. Their language is called Anglo-Saxon old. According to Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, around the year 449, Vortigern, King of the British Isles, extended an invitation to some Anglos led by Hengest and Horsa to help him against the Picts. In change, the Angles were granted lands in the southeast. More help was sought, and in response came Angles, Saxons and Jutes. Documented chronicle, the subsequent arrival of settlers who eventually established seven Kingdoms: Northumbria, Mercia, East Anglia, Kent, Essex, Sussex and Wessex. However, to trial of most modern studies, this Anglo-Saxon history is legendary and politically motivated. See below everything about who are the tribes and the contribution that these were in English.

1. HISTORY OF ENGLISH Definition: English is a West Germanic language originating from the Anglo-Frisian dialects brought to Britain by Germanic invaders from various parts of which it is now northwestern Germany, southern Denmark and northern Low Countries. Initially, the Old English was a group of dialects, reflecting the varied origins of the AngloSaxon kingdoms of England. One of these dialects, Late West Saxon, at one point came to dominate. The old English original was then influenced by two waves of invading: the first was living in the Scandinavian branch of the Germanic languages, which conquered and colonized parts of Britain in the eighth and ninth centuries; the second was regulated in the century XI, who spoke old Norman and developed a variety of English known as Anglo-Norman. These two invasions caused the English to mix to some extent. Cohabitation with the Scandinavians resulted in a significant grammatical simplification and lexical enrichment anglofrisio core of English, the later Norman occupation led to a graft of a more elaborate layer of words from the Romance languages (derived from Latin) This Norman influence in the English penetrated through the courts and government. With the advent of the Renaissance, Latin and classical Greek Norman French supplanted as the main source of new words. So was developed in English language many loans were a huge and varied vocabulary. 2. Tribes that existed in England and the contribution that resulted in the formation of English: UK. Its territory is geographically formed by the southern and central Great Britain, an island it shares with Scotland and Wales and about 100 smaller islands including the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight. Bounded on the north to Scotland, west Wales and its two land borders with the sea northwest of Ireland, south-west with the Celtic Sea, the east by the North Sea and the south by the English Channel. The territory of modern England has been inhabited by various cultures for about thirty-five thousand years, but takes its name from the Angles, one of the Germanic peoples who settled in place for the V and VI. Became a unified state in 927 and from the age of discovery, which began in the fifteenth century, has had a major cultural and legal impact worldwide. The English language, the Anglican Church and the law of England was taking as a basis for the legal system of many other countries, where it is most development was England, and the parliamentary system of government has been widely adopted by other nations.

The kingdom of England since 1284 also included Wales, was an independent state until 1707, when they signed the Act of Union with Scotland, to create the Kingdom of Great Britain. In 1801 Ireland joined the Kingdom of Great Britain thus creating the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland until 1922. With the participation of Irish independence and since then is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
