Abstract
This paper presents a short overview of the history of the English language and its expansion through borrowing of words from other languages. The borrowed words are referred to as ‘loanwords’. Unlike any other language, English vocabulary consists of 70% ‘loan words’. The history of English and thus ‘borrowing’ is divided into four periods: Old English Period (500-1100), Middle English Period (1100-1500), Early Modern English Period (1500-1800) and Late Modern English Period (1800-present). Each of the four periods is discussed in terms of the influential languages that dominated these periods and their contribution to the development of the English language.
