Languages are dying out all the time. Here are four languages that were once widely spoken but are now
considered as “dead” languages.
Old Norse
Old Norse was spoken and written by the Vikings from about the 7th century. It was used in countries like
Iceland and parts of Russia. The Vikings were famous for their attacks on neighbouring countries, and so Old Norse
had an influence on the languages of the places they attacked, including English. For example, English words such
as “egg, gift, anger, want, trust and score” come from Old Norse.
Middle English
Middle English was spoken in England between the 12th and 15th centuries and was very different from the
English we use these days. In the past, England was highly influenced by Old Norse. So was its language. There are
no manuscripts (手稿) in Middle English as it was much more fashionable to write in French. Middle English gave
way to modern English. One example of the wide use of modern English was Shakespeare’s works.
Hunnir
Hunnir is the most mysterious of the languages on our list. The Huns were a community that spread across
eastern Europe in the 4th and 5th centuries. Despite the Huns’ success in expanding their empire, their language
was never written down. The few words that are known are mainly names-in modern Turkey and Mongolia. Apart
from these, only three words are known; kamos, medos (types of drinks) and strava (a big meal).
Ancient Greek
More than 4,000 years ago, the Greeks spoke an advanced language known today as Ancient Greek, anddeveloped the first alphabet. Indeed, the English word “alphabet” is taken from the first two letters of the Greek
alphabet: alpha and beta. Although the language is no longer spoken anywhere, it continues to be studied by
scholars around the world and is regarded as one of the most important languages of all time.
1．Which language was spoken by the Vikings?
A．Old Norse. B．Middle English.
C．Ancient Greek. D．Hunnir.
2．Why did Middle English disappear?
A．French was a popular written language then. B．Modern English replaced Middle English.
C．Shakespeare didn’t use Middle English. D．Middle English was influenced by Old Norse.
3．Which word comes from Ancient Greek?
A．Want. B．Kamos. C．Strava. D．Alphabet.

My Favourite Books
Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series(系列)of lifestyle books.
Here she picks her top reads.Matilda
Roald Dahl
I once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciation
for his strange and delightful words. Matilda's battles with her cruel me parents and the bossy headmisres，Miss
Trunchbull，are equally fumy and frightening，but they're also aspirational.
After Dark
Haruki Murakami
It’s about two sisters-Eri，a model who either won’t or can’t stop sleeping，and Mari, a young student . In
trying to connect to her sister. Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse ”night people” who are
hiding secrets.
Gone Girl
Gillian Fynn
There was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did but the horror story is
brilliant. There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It's a real whodunit
and the frustration when you realise what's going on is horribly enjoyable
The Stand
Stephen King
This is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes
out 99.4% of the world's population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those let. Randall Flagg is one
of the scariest characters ever.
