English, belonging to the West Germanic branch of the Germanic family of Indo-European languages, evolved from the languages spoken by Germanic tribes of Anglo-Saxon and Jute tribes who immigrated to the British Isles from the periphery of Scandinavia, such as Germany, the Netherlands and Denmark, and spread to all parts of the world through active British colonization. Due to contact with many national languages in history, vocabulary has changed from unitary to pluralistic, grammar has changed from "more inflections" to "less inflections", and pronunciation has changed regularly.
In terms of the number of native English speakers, English is the official language of the most used countries in the world, the most widely used second language in the world, and the official language of the European Union, the most international organizations and Commonwealth countries, ranking second in the world after the number of native Chinese speakers.

Nowadays, English is used as a medium of communication in many international situations. English is also the language most closely related to computers. Most programming languages are related to English. With the use of the Internet, English is more widely used. English is one of the working languages of the United Nations. Some people think Scottish is an independent language close to English, while others think it is a dialect of English. The closest thing to old English is ancient Frisian, which is still used in northern Netherlands and Frisian province in northern Germany. Scots, low Saxons and English people are also very close. Other related languages include German, Dutch and Afrikaans. The Normans in France conquered the kingdom of England in the 1 1 century, bringing tens of thousands of French and Latin words, which greatly enriched the English vocabulary and led to the invalidation of many native Germanic words.
