Languages are always changing. The English of today is quite different from the English of 500 years ago. In time, some languages become more important and others become less important. Some even die out completely. About 1000 years ago English was a little known language.
If a language has a large number of speakers, or it is very old, there may be differences in the way it is spoken in different areas. That is to say, the language may have several dialects. Chinese is a good example of dialect differences. Chinese has been spoken for thousands of years by many millions of speakers. The differences among the dialects of Chinese are so great that speakers of Chinese from some parts of China can not understand each other.
There are other kinds of dialects. In some languages we find words or expressions and even grammatical forms which are used only by men and others used by women. What is more, each generation(一代人) uses its own expressions and grandparents and grandchildren may sometimes have difficulty in understanding each other.
