My favorite class
I like classes of the English history in the second lesson of Tuesday. I don't like history. But, the content of this class is very interesting. By the class of the beginning of the spring semester, teacher asked us "Where did the English come over from ?" Though I thought that this answer is United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, it was wrong. English came from the German people. The German people is current German ancestors. I learned German in the second foreign language at the age of a freshman. I thought that it resembled English when I learned German. And the pronunciation of English is resembled of French. In addition, the English has many loanwords from French. It is caused by Norman conquest. The Norman people is current French ancestors. In those days, the Normans who invaded the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland forced Briton to use French. It is said that you can understand the history of the country if you read the language. I felt like having vaguely understood the meaning. (179words)
