| | Old English Language Grammar by Cyril Babaev |
| | I am speaking about the root-stems which according to Germanic laws of Ablaut, change the root vowel during the declension. | | | This is how the Old English language was born. | | | Old English, as well as practically all Germanic tongues, is not conservative at all: it witnessed quite an extensive use of analytic forms in place of older inflections and lost many others. |

| | English grammar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The imperative mood in English occurs only in the second person, and the subject ("you") is generally not expressly stated, because it is implied. | | | English also sees some use of the OSV (object-subject-verb) word order, especially when making comparisons using pronouns that are marked for case. | | | English grammar is the study of rules governing the use of the English language. |
