English is a branch of West Germanic and was first spoken in Britain in the Middle Ages. Due to its vast colonies, English has become the most widely spoken language in the world. The Anglian tribe was one of the Germanic tribes that later migrated to the island of Great Britain, known as England. Both names come from the Baltic peninsula of Anglia.

The language is closely related to Frisian and Lower Saxon, and its vocabulary is influenced by other Germanic languages, especially Norse (North Germanic), and is written primarily in Latin and French.

English has developed for more than 1,400 years. The earliest form of English is a group of Ingvar dialects brought to Britain by Anglo-Saxon immigrants in the fifth century, collectively known as Old English. Medieval English began at the end of the 11th century, when the Normans conquered England; in 1476, William Caxton introduced the printing press to England and began publishing the first printed books in London, expanding the influence of English.

Since the 17th century, under the extensive influence of Britain and the United States, modern English has spread throughout the world. Through various print and electronic media in these countries, English has become one of the world's leading languages ??and also plays a leading role in many regional and professional settings, such as science, navigation and law.
