Throughout the episodes of Animalogy, I’ll be talking about the
Proto-Indo-European reconstructed language, the related Indo-European languages, Old English (or Anglo-Saxon), the Norman invasion, Latin, Greek, and different types of sound changes that have occurred in English. In order to provide some context for what might be unfamiliar bits of history or linguistics, I'm offering this brief overview of this remarkable language called English.
