Examines how English grew from an assortment of dialects into a standard national language with notions of correctness and social sanctions for using incorrect forms. The 12 essays consider the codification of particular forms such as the conclusive perfect and the third person neuter possessive, what people made the decisions, the interaction between written and spoken English, the importance of social factors, and other topics.
