The Future of English
Will the world end up with only one language?
Will English become the native language of the world?

The growth of the vocabulary
English has acquired many new words for new scientific and technological concepts.
The bulk of the new vocabulary is only known to the specialst, but some words have become part of the everyday language.

Grammaticalization
Grammaticalization is cross-linguistically
so pervasive that some linguists
suggested that all grammatical
expressions are eventually derived from a
lexical source.
![Page 52: Modern English 1800-2005. English 1720 British Colonies 1763.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649d405503460f94a19d7f/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
The grammaticalization of demonstratives
There is at least one other class for the development of grammatical markers: demonstratives.
Demonstratives provide a frequent historical source for a wide variety of grammatical expressions: articles, relative and third person pronouns, sentence connectives, copulas, directional preverbs, focus markers etc.
![Page 53: Modern English 1800-2005. English 1720 British Colonies 1763.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649d405503460f94a19d7f/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

The grammaticalization of demonstratives
There is no evidence from any language
that demonstratives developed from lexical
expressions.
![Page 56: Modern English 1800-2005. English 1720 British Colonies 1763.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649d405503460f94a19d7f/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
The grammaticalization of demonstratives
Are demonstratives grammatical markers?
![Page 57: Modern English 1800-2005. English 1720 British Colonies 1763.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649d405503460f94a19d7f/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
The grammaticalization of demonstratives
Demonstratives function to establish
joint attention, which is one of the most
fundamental functions of human
communication.
![Page 58: Modern English 1800-2005. English 1720 British Colonies 1763.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649d405503460f94a19d7f/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
The grammaticalization of demonstratives
Demonstratives have a special status in
language: They are part of the basic
vocabulary of every language.
![Page 59: Modern English 1800-2005. English 1720 British Colonies 1763.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649d405503460f94a19d7f/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

Grammaticalization and linguistic theory
Grammaticalization is of central signifiance for
the theory of language:
1.Challenges rigid division between lexicon
and grammar.
2.Suggests that grammar is a dynamic model.
3. Supports the hypothesis that grammatical
categories have a prototype structure.
