26、英国统治着印度。优质文档优质文档通向现代英语之路16世纪末期大约有 5百万到 7百万人说英语，几乎所有这些人都生活在英国。后来，在17世纪英国人开始航海征服了世界其它地区。于是，许多别的国家开始说英语了。如今说英语的人比以往任何时候都多，他们有的是作为第一语言来说，有的是作为第二语言或外语。以英语作为母语的人，即使他们所讲的语言不尽相同，也可以互相交流。请看以下例子：英国人贝蒂：“请到我的公寓(flat)里来看看，好吗？”美国人艾米：“好的。我很乐意到你的公寓(apartment)去。 ”那么，英语在一段时间里为什么会起变化呢？事实上，当不同文化互相交流渗透时，所有的语言都会有所发展、有所变化
27、。首先，在公元 450年到 1150年间，人们所说的英语跟今天所说的英语就很不一样。当时的英语更多地是以德语为基础的，而现代英语不是。然后，渐渐地，大约在公元 800年到 1150年期间，英语不那么像德语了，因为那时的英国的统治者起初讲丹麦语后来讲法语。这些新的定居者大大丰富了英语语言，特别是在词汇方面。所以到 17世纪，莎士比亚所用的词汇量比以前任何时期都大。在 1620年，一些英国人搬迁到美洲定居。后来，到了 19世纪，有些英国人也被送往澳大利亚，两个国家的人都开始说英语了。最后，到 20世纪，英语才真正定形。那时，英语在拼写上发生了两大变化：首先塞缪尔约翰逊编写了词典，后来，诺厄韦伯斯特
28、编纂了美国英语词典 。后者体现了美国英语拼写的不同特色。现在，英语在南亚也被当作外语或第二语言使用了。比如说，印度拥有众多讲英语很流利的人，这是因为英国于 1765 年到 1947年统治过印度。在那期间，英语成了官方语言和教育用语。在新加坡、马来西亚和非洲其它国家，比如南非，人们也说英语。目前在中国学习英语的人数正在迅速增长。事实上，中国可能拥有世界上最多的英语学习者。中国英语会发展出自己的特色吗？这只能由时间来回答了。.单词拼写1The police are still uncertain of the murderers identity.2.They made a voyage acro
