Please tell me about 'The great vowel shift'.
Hello there!

I've heard some interesting things called ‘The great vowel shift' , 'grammatical gender' in old English and 'Anglish'. Can you help me with this?
Just curious but I'm really interested in how English evolve and change.

Thank you in advance!
