Dictation «The Origins of The English Language»

English originates from Old English, which is its earliest historical form from the 5th century. There was no punctuation until the 15th century. The oldest Old English word still used today that has the same direct meaning is town.  Town has kept the same meaning as its original Old English word “tun” meaning area of dwelling.
