Polish Language History

Poland developed into a territorial state during the 10th century under Mieszko I, the first ruler of Poland. Under the dynastic rule of Mieszko I during the Piast dynasty, Christianity became widespread in Poland. The Polish language began its development during this historical period with the establishment of the Polish state. Under Mieszko I, many Slavonic tribes and communities began uniting and thus sharing and developing the early Polish language. Mieszko accepted the Latin alphabet to be used to write the Polish language, whereas prior to this period was only a spoken language.

Over the centuries of Polish linguistic development, Polish has both influenced and been influenced by many other languages that it has been exposed to. During the Middle Ages, the Germans invaded many Polish territories which led to an adoption of German language rules by the Polish. For the duration of the 18th century in Poland, French became a popular language and was spoken primarily among the elite and privileged class. More recently with the globalization of the English language in both the 20th and 21st centuries, Polish has adopted English words. For example, the Polish word, “komputer”, was adopted from the English word “computer”.
