HTPCs both are and aren't a class of their own. Technically speaking any HTPC is also theoretically capable of being an extremely competent home computer. Indeed, those who generally use their PC both as a PC and as their home theater could do well by building a HTPC and using it for day-to-day tasks as well.
The earliest form of English is called Old English or Anglo-Saxon (c. 550â1066 CE). Old English developed from a set of North Sea Germanic dialects originally spoken along the coasts of Frisia, Lower Saxony, Jutland, and Southern Sweden by Germanic tribes known as the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. In the fifth century, the Anglo-Saxons settled Britain and the Romans withdrew from Britain.
English evolved from Anglo-Saxon/Northumbrian, to Old English, including Norse and German derivatives, to middle English (with it's French and Latin influences), to Modern English which dates from Tudor times. The number of pure Anglo-Saxon words is therefore impossible to calculate. Sourceen.wikipedia.org/.../List_of_English_words_of_Anglo-Saxon_origin. One must first establish how many words are in the current English language. But whereas many people do not count plurals, or the different tenses of verbs, simply the gerund, some do.
