im JUi lUMll Karel King punctuates a senten ENGLISH - THE FUNDAMENTAL The English language has grown to its present ex- cellence through the development of one of the world ' s greatest literatures and through the strengthening and refining of its vocabulary and grammar for the past one thousand years. During this time English-speaking people have been borrowing words and phrases from oil languages of the world and have been assimilating them to the forms of English speech. Thus the language has gained an unparalleled variety of synonyms and turns of speech, and it is better fitted to be the language of o nation made up of a people originating from many races, as ore we Americans.
