What i have learnt today...

i have learnt the difference between dialect  and accent.
Accent  - the sound patterns of specific dialects
Dialect - is a specific variety of english that differs from other varieties.
Also, i have learnt that language we use today is influenced and from Vikings, Anglo Saxons and The Norman Conquest.

    Well done Laura. How about adding a couple of examples of words which entered the language from these eras?
