Слайд 153. Periods in the History of English
Traditionally, the history of

the English language is divided into 3 major periods.

This division

was first proposed by an English philologist, Henry Sweet, in 1873.

Слайд 16Periods in the History of English
Old English (Anglo-Saxon) (5 c.-1066)

= the period of full inflexions;
Middle English (1066 – 1485)

= of levelled inflexions;
Modern English (1485 - ...) = of lost inflexions.

Слайд 29Anglo-Frisian Brightening (or First Fronting).
The Anglo-Frisian languages underwent a sound

change in their development from Proto-Germanic by which the vowel

ā was fronted to ǣ, unless followed by a nasal consonant (n, m).

Слайд 35Palatal diphthongization
OE vowels also change under the influence of the

initial palatal consonants ʒ [j], c [k’] and cluster sc

[sc’].
As a result of palatalization the vowel [e] and [æ] are diphthongized. E.g.:
OE scÆmu > OE sceamu ‘shame’
