What is "language change"?

Language change refers to the natural evolution of a language over time, affecting its structure, vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar. This change can occur due to various factors, including social interactions, cultural influences, technological advancements, and contact with other languages. Language change can manifest in several ways, such as the introduction of new words, shifts in meaning, alterations in pronunciation, and changes in grammatical rules. For example, the English language has evolved significantly from Old English to Modern English, incorporating words from other languages and undergoing shifts in syntax and phonetics. Language change is a continuous process, reflecting the dynamic nature of human communication and the ways in which language adapts to meet the needs of its speakers.
