Description
Equal parts a book about language, geography, and history, History of Language by Patrick Foote uncovers the stories of how languages have traveled the globe and found homes in new places. This ranges from how English got to the USA, French to Canada, Arabic across North Africa, and so on. Each chapter explains one of these cases: where the language first originated from, how it arrived at its new destination, what languages were spoken there originally, what became of those languages, and how the language has changed in its new home.
