The origins of the English language in chronological order stands as:
1. Proto-Indo-European
2. Proto-Germanic
3. English
English is widely used in the United States as a result of British colonial rule in the Americas. The initial migration of English-speaking settlers to North America took place at the beginning of the 17th century. Later immigration took place in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The West Germanic language known as English was developed from Anglo-French dialects and brought to Britain by Germanic conquerors (8th and 9th centuries AD). A second invasion was started by the Normans in the eleventh century, who spoke Old Norman and invented an English accent. The "England English" accent, commonly referred to as "American English," was first developed in England. American English began to change in their own distinctive ways, according to a linguist at the Smithsonian Institution.
