With over a millennium of documented evolution, the English language's transformation can be observed across diverse written records - from ancient medieval texts to contemporary digital communications, and more recently, through audio recordings of spoken English.
By applying contemporary linguistic methods, you'll examine both written and spoken English structures while investigating the language's historical development.
Beyond focusing on English's historical changes, our research also emphasizes exploring its various forms, such as:
Scots
regional English dialects
global English variations
You'll have opportunities to analyze current English and Scots dialects while comparing their characteristics with those of other languages.
