Parts of speech

Words are the building  blocks  of language, but they need  to be arranged  in a perfect  and recognizeable  manner.
The essential  components of a sentence  are Nouns and  verbs.
In every day  speech,the important  parts of the speech  are :

Nouns - eg. Richard, desk, boy, Mumbai etc

English around the world

I would  like to start my blog  by a small  note on English  language. Many countries  throughout  the world  use the English  language, but its speech  can differ hugely, between  regions and country.
The English  language  can be traced back  to more than1,500 years old. It started  to spread  around  the world  from1,600s onwards. This was when the British  began to explore  and colonise, taking the language  with them. Today English  is the most  popular  language  ,widely used over the world  for business  and trade.
Some  known facts about English  are
1.North  America was the first  English speaking colony.
2.It became the dominant  language in  Great  Britain  from 5th century  onwards.
3.A survey suggests two thirds of Europeans speak some English.
4. Today  English  language is an international  language  taught  in many Asian  countries.
