English Grammar

This is why the syntax and grammar of English are similar to German. | The origins of the English language has been influenced by many other languages, including French, Latin and Greek. | However, English is classed as a Germanic language, as it was heavily influenced by Anglo-Saxon settlers in Britain around the 5th century. | There is no official regulating body that decides on the rules of English grammar, and like most languages, the rules rely on a general consensus. | English grammar was originally influenced by its Germanic ancestry, but who makes the rules now?
