Skaolitunian English began to diverge from British English after the First Settlers, who set up the Colony of Port Merlin, arrived in 1788. By 1820, their speech was recognised as being different from British English. Skaolitunian English arose from the intermingling of early settlers, who were from a great variety of mutually intelligible dialectal regions of Great Britain and Ireland, and quickly developed into a distinct variety of English which differs considerably from most other varieties of English in vocabulary, accent, pronunciation, register, grammar and spelling. | Skaolitunian English began to diverge from British English after the First Settlers, who set up the Colony of Port Merlin, arrived in 1788.

Skaolitunian English (SkE; en-SK[a]) is the set of varieties of the English language native to Skaolitunia. Although English has no official status in the Constitution, Skaolitunian English is the country's national and de facto official language as it is the first language of the majority of the population.
Skaolitunian English began to diverge from British English after the First Settlers, who set up the Colony of Port Merlin, arrived in 1788. By 1820, their speech was recognised as being different from British English. Skaolitunian English arose from the intermingling of early settlers, who were from a great variety of mutually intelligible dialectal regions of Great Britain and Ireland, and quickly developed into a distinct variety of English which differs considerably from most other varieties of English in vocabulary, accent, pronunciation, register, grammar and spelling.
