T
he English language has gone through significant changes from Old English
(450–1150) through Middle English (c. 1150–1500) and Early Modern English
(1500-1750) to Modern English (1750–present) by becoming an analytic
language from a synthetic language rich in inflections. Instead of inflections
Present-Day English makes intensive use of prepositions and auxiliary verbs
and depends upon word order to indicate syntactic relations in a sentence. The
present paper discusses how English advanced from the free word order of Old
English to the relatively fixed word order that is used in Present-Day English
by touching upon noun declension, inversion and fronting, quoting examples
from literature and popular culture.
