The History of English in 10 Minutes

A compilation of ten videos on the history of the English language. I compiled the videos into a film to make it a little easier to watch them all. While I do not own the originals.

why are you crying? im making an observation of the video. that is the point of the comment section right? to make comments about what you see or hear in a video. in fact, this a video for learning history.. so why not learn a little more history?
