The English language is spoken by more than a billion people throughout the world. But where did English come from? And how has it evolved into the language used today? In this Very Short Introduction Simon Horobin investigates how we have arrived at the English we know today, and celebrates the way new speakers and new uses mean that it continues to adapt. Engaging with contemporary concerns about correctness, Horobin considers whether such changes are improvements, or evidence of slipping standards. What is the future for the English language? Will Standard English continue to hold sway, or we are witnessing its replacement by newly emerging Englishes?

Very happy with these. Have several now.
Have many of these now. Seems like GOOD quality and heavier than most. I love the square and that fact that you can have either soft warm light or cool light with just a switch. Solar seems strong enough too.

Great
Color: Black, Size: 4 Pack
These outdoor lights are substantial, all metal. I have owned a set for 2 years now and they work great. That's why I ordered them again for another outdoor space.

Nice product
These are well constructed pathway lights. All metal and in particular I like that the solar panel is covered in glass. The solar panel on the cheap pathway lights end up getting dull and fail to work. The light given off is adequate for our needs. But they do not last through the entire evening. By about 5am the light becomes very dull.

Outdoor Lighting - Nice Fixtures Sturdy
Color: Black, Size: 2 Pack
After one year of use, these still work great, so we bought some more. Solar-powered, probably 8 to 12 hours of use on a full charge. Excellent construction. Northeast environment with snow, ice, and summer heat. A user-friendly replaceable battery pack was a must for us. These are not cheap, but they are well worth it. Two light levels, low and high, plus a selection of bright white and warm white, all at the flick of a rubberized weather-proof switch.

High Quality
Color: Black, Size: 4 Pack
I have only had these for a few weeks but they seem to be high quality. They look great by my entryway. I have no idea what some reviewers were saying about difficult to assemble. They make it SO EASY. They even have some screws already in the hole where they should go so there is not guessing what goes where.
