Shownotes Transcript

English is the most widely spoken language in the world. More than 1,100,000,000 people speak English. But have you ever wondered where English came from? The English language has a fascinating history, which is reflected in the language today. Join me on this podcast as we go on an adventure - the adventure of English. This is part 2 of this ‘adventure of English’ series, in which I talk about the influence of the viking invasions from Scandinavia on the English language. The book that inspired this series is called ‘The Adventure of English’ by Melvyn Bragg.
