In Ten Minutes

Let's try to learn something this summer. How about some history of English?


For under ten minutes, you will learn from this video the origins of the English language, how it grew and how it keeps on growing until today. It is informative. Its animations are just as fun. And for someone with an attention span of a little longer than a goldfish, this video works quite well.

This compilation of videos were taken from the Open University site. Videos of lectures and other informative videos of just about any topic under the sun is available in the website, too.

  1. How are you able to understand the words the speaker is saying in the video you posted? i'm having a hard time comprehending his words.

  2. That's the fun of it! The first time I watched, I laughed at myself at how clueless I was. If your aim is to learn, you'll watch the video again and again to understand every term, every idiom and every cartoon in it, just like I did.
