Description

English is a very strange language. It is a Germanic language where half of the words come from a Romance language.
We have a host of words that make absolutely no sense in terms of spelling or pronunciation. 
Perhaps strangest of all, some of the greatest literary works in the English language are filled with words that aren’t even in the language anymore. 
Learn more about the English of Shakespeare and how our language has changed, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
