Слайд 3

An analysis of the vocabulary in the Middle English period shows

great instability and constant and rapid change. Many words became obsolete, and if preserved, then only in some dialects; many more appeared in the rapidly developing language to reflect the ever-changing life of the speakers and under the influence of contacts with other nations

Слайд 4

The principal means of enriching vocabulary in Middle English are not

internal, but external - borrowings.

Слайд 5

Two languages in succession enriched the vocabulary of the English language

of the time - the Scandinavian language and the French language, the nature of the borrowings and their amount reflecting the conditions of the contacts between the English and these languages.

Слайд 6

Due to contacts between the Scandinavians and the English-speaking people many

words were borrowed from the Scandinavian language, for example:

Слайд 7

Nouns:
law, fellow, sky, skirt, skill, skin, egg, anger, awe, bloom, knife,

root, bull, cake, husband, leg, wing, guest, loan, race
Adjectives:
big, week, wrong, ugly, twin
Verbs:
call, cast, take, happen, scare, hail, want, bask, gape, kindle
Pronouns:
they, them, their; and many others.

Слайд 8

Sometimes an English word and its Scandinavian doublet were the same

in meaning but slightly different phonetically, and the phonetic form of the Scandinavian borrowing is preserved in the English language, having ousted the English counterpart.

Слайд 9

For example, Modern English to give, to get come from the

Scandinavian gefa, geta,

Слайд 10

The Norman conquest and the subsequent history of the country left

deep traces in the English language, mainly in the form of borrowings in words connected with such spheres of social and political activity where French-speaking Normans had occupied for a long time all places of importance.
