Who invented the dictionary? Dictionaries have been around since 2300 BC and the oldest dictionaries were discovered in Syria. Over the years Chinese, European, Arabic and English dictionaries were also written. Robert Cawdrey, an English school teacher published the first English alphabetical dictionary. However it was Samuel Johnson who compiled the first widely recognized and reliable dictionary in English in 1755. Samuel Johnson was a popular British author and published âA Dictionary of English Languageâ which took him nine years to complete.
The foundation of the English language was first built when the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes came to England. The Old Saxon language was the most spoken in England until the Vikings from mainly Norway and Denmark invaded Britain.This lead to many Scandinavian words entering the English Language.And when some Vikings settled in Normandy, they began to adopt French as their main language, eventually replacing Danish.nd when they conquered England in 1066, they brought over and introduced around 30,000 French words to the ever growing English Language. The French addition to the English Language was the true start of Modern English.
