Shoebox is a journey of discovery, and the Web provides a grand adventure for those prepared to go looking. Below are some of the links I have found in my years of searching for interesting aspects, views and treasures of English, particularly from the viewpoint of an ESL teacher.

Etymology Online
This site contains the secrets of where words came from. Be prepared, if you are a word geek like me, to be entranced for hours.



Indo-European languages

The Linguistics Research Centre at the University of Texas was very kind to prepare some fascinating material on the origins of English.
