Answer:
1 linguistic shifts, spelling variances, and dialect changes- pronunciation and spelling changes
2. more direct and simplified sentences- punctuation changes
3. borrowed and coined words- vocabulary changes
4. amelioration and pejoration- meaning changes
Explanation:
The above changes reflect the various ways that words and sentences are formed in the English language to communicate a clearer meaning.
- Pronunciation and spelling changes will affect the ways words are pronounced amidst different dialects and will also account for differences in spelling.
- When words are properly punctuated, sentences become clearer and more simplified.
- Vocabulary is the compilation of words used in a given language. Some are borrowed from other languages, while others are coined to give their meanings.
- Amelioration and pejoration refer to the changes in the meaning of words. Amelioration occurs when a word with a negative meaning becomes elevated to assume a positive meaning. Pejoration occurs when a word with a positive meaning assumes a negative meaning.
