Before this thread dissapears i must post this link. I would say anyone interested in the development of the English language this is worth 45 minutes or so of your time.

Melvyn Bragg travels throughout Britain to explore the roots of the English language which evolved from a German dialect that arrived in the country in the fifth century and evolved into a language that is understood by more people around the world and explores its history that helped it to become what it is today.
