Who brought the English language to Britain?

Answer 1

It should be noted that the English did not discover Australia. However, the first Englishman to set foot on Australia's shores was William Dampier. On 4 January 1688, Dampier's ship the 'Cygnet' was beached on the northwest coast of Australia (then known as New Holland), at King Sound near Buccaneer Archipelago on the north-west coast of Australia. While the ship was being repaired Dampier made notes on the fauna and flora he found there.

Dampier was unimpressed by the dry, barren landscape, the lack of water and what he described as the "miserablest people in the world" - the native population. His negative reports led to the delay of England's colonisation of what is now Australia. It was not until 1770 that Captain James Cook reported positively on the green, fertile countryside of New South Wales, and England sought to colonise the previously unknown continent.

Answer 2

The English language developed within Britain, hence the name "English language". Old English is a relative of the other old Germanic languages, such as Norse, Old Icelandic, Old Norwegian and Old German. After the Normans invaded England in 1066, Old English effectively died and transitioned into Middle English, which is more closely related to Modern English but is different enough not to be mutually intelligible. By the 1500s, Middle English had ended and gave way to Early Modern English, the language of Queen Elizabeth I and William Shakespeare, and is, for all intents and purposes, the same language as that which we speak and write today, but with a few variations. Modern English is the current variation of a language which first came into existence in the first millennium. It is important to note, however, that Old English, Middle English and Modern English are each three, distinct languages. Old English and Middle English are dead languages, succeeded by Modern English. Middle and Modern English have been heavily influenced by Norman French as it was the state language of England under the reign of the Normans.

Basically, the Angles, Saxons and Jutes brought the earliest forms of English to England from West and North Germany; the language was influenced by the Norman language, becoming Middle English; the Great Vowel Shift of the 15th century transitioned the language into Modern English.
