History of English provides an essential introduction and workbook for students coming to this subject for the first time. Introducing key linguistics concepts, this book examines the history of the English language in order to explain the English that is used today. It incorporates ''discussion points'' to generate debate; involves readers in collecting and analyzing their own data; and contains a ''mini-corpus'' of texts, used for exercises and to illustrate points raised in the commentary. Revised throughout, this new edition contains an updated internet resource section and bibliography, and a brand new chapter on punctuation.
