The means by which words are formed are increased by a number of new productive elements that owe their existence to borrowed lexis. Shorter Oxford English Dictionary 5.1 for Mac was available to download from the developer's website when we last checked. Borrowed lexis supplies new names for new concepts, but also increases synonymy in the language, thus providing alternative ways of saying the same thing in different registers. This is the period in the history of English when for the first time the vernacular extends to practically all contexts of speech and writing. This large-scale borrowing no doubt reflects both the various foreign contacts of the period and the growing demands made on the evolving standard language. In Early Modern English their share varies between forty per cent and fifty per cent of the new vocabulary recorded (Wermser 1976: 40). According to one estimate, loan words take up a mere three per cent of the recorded vocabulary in Old English, but some seventy per cent or more in Present-Day English (Scheler 1977: 74). One of the most obvious differences between Old English and Present-Day English is the increase in borrowed lexis.
