Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer (1,25ms).
Like other languages, English is always changing, but it changes very slowly.
People invent new words, borrow words from other languages and change the
meaning of words as needed. For example, the English word “byte” was invented by
computer scientists in 1959. The word “tomato” was borrowed from Nahuati, an
American Indian language spoken in Mexico. The word “meat” once referred to food
in general. People learn English as well as languages by listening, copying what they
hear, and using the language. Most school children learn their first language easily
and sometimes other languages as well.
