Abstract
The present paper examines the history and ancestry of the English language which was founded by the Teutonic Tribes (Angles, Saxons, Jutes and Frisians). Through tribal unifications, British migrations and colonization, Linguistic transplantations, etc., the Tribal language began to put on a Global face. The Pundits (eminent scholars/Professors) of English like F.T Wood, C.L Wren, Henry Bradley, George McKnight, E.L Barbara, Albert C Baugh, David Graddol, David Crystal etc. have spilled much ink on the rapid ‘Chameleon-like’,’ Python-like ‘transformation and evolution of English from primitive to cosmopolitan. The American Trade, Technology, internet, computer, have been playing such a pivotal role in our lives today. The Complexity of the Grammatical system (the irrational and illogical Gender, cumbersome inflexions etc.) have all been simplified and rationalized through Anglo Saxon Period, Middle English Period and Modern English Period. The fact that has generally been agreed by many Anglophiles is that non –Native learners or users of English outnumber and outdo the Native speakers. The positive points for this rapid and sporadic change in the globalization of English are the ‘Facility and Felicity’. They are born out of the simplicity, flexibility, and ease, the chief characteristic features of English.
Keywords: Teutonic Tribes, Unifications, British Migrations and Colorizations, Linguistic Transplantations, Facility and Felicity’ Simplicity, Flexibility.
