1.The first Germanic consonant shift. Grimm's Law.

2.Verner's Law. The shift of stress.

There exists a sufficient number of Old English texts to form an opinion about what really the English language was in the times of Alfred and his successors. The language of the period bears a lot of traces in common with other inflected Indo-European languages, Ukrainian and Russian including.

The nominal parts of speech were declined, the infinitive of the verb likewise had a distinct infinitival suffix, the structure of the sentence had a subject, a predicate and secondary parts. Just like in our Slavic languages word order was free, and the nominal parts of speech had cases, there was agreement between the subject and the predicate, double negation was not prohibited.

Impersonal sentences had no subject. And a considerable number of words of the language had parallels in other known Indo European languages (brodor 6paт: duru .двepi). Some of

sounds are found in all languages that we know, some are now known as phonetic symbols, and they are specifically English sounds. But some sounds which are found elsewhere, may not stand in the English words of Indo European origin in the same places. Sunu-sunus- cин; but duo -два

twа.

By carefully studying present-day English words and comparing them with the words of our language we can related words in the languages: (flame Rus. пламя; Ukr. полум’я).

In the process of its development a great number of words were taken into English from other languages (mainly Latin or Greek):

first – primary; two – double; eight – octopus; eye – binoculars; tooth - dentist

In some others the changes are so significant, that we cannot see common features without knowing the major shifts in sound system.
