History of the English Language at the U of S

This is a blog for a History of the English Language course at the University of Saskatchewan. There will be two main types of posts: (1) student posts on various topics related to the course; and (2) short posts by Yin Liu, the instructor of the course, in a series that you might like to think of as the History-of-English-Mythbusters: that is, discussions of common misconceptions about the history of the English language. I hope that there will be lots of good student posts, and the Mythbusters posts are mostly to fill in the gaps so that something happens in this blog. Also check out the Writing Tips section, which will also be updated frequently.

Enjoy reading. Please feel free to comment (politely and appropriately, of course).
