![EVOLUTION
The evolution of Proto-Germanic from its
ancestral forms, beginning with its ancestor
Proto-Indo-European, began with the
development of a separate common way of
speech among some geographically nearby
speakers of a prior language and ended with the
dispersion of the proto-language speakers into
distinct populations with mostly independent
speech habits. Between the two points, many
sound changes occurred..

![HISTORY
1.Some sources also give a date of 750 BC for the earliest
expansion out of southern Scandinavia along the North Sea
coast towards the mouth of the Rhine.
●
Proto-Germanic developed out of pre-Proto-Germanicduring the
Pre-Roman Iron Age of Northern Europe. According to the
Germanic substrate hypothesis, it may have been influenced by
non-Indo-European cultures, such as the Funnelbeaker culture,
but the sound change in the Germanic languages known as
Grimm's law points to a non-substratic development away from
other branches of Indo-European.
According to Musset (1965), the Proto-Germanic language
developed in southern Scandinavia (Denmark, south Sweden and
southern Norway), the Urheimat (original home) of the Germanic
tribes.
• Late Proto-Germanic speakers had expanded over significant
distance, from the Rhine to the Dniepr spanning about 1,200
km (700 mi). The period marks the breakup of Late Proto-
Germanic and the beginning of the (historiographically
recorded) Germanic migrations.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F53140ade-48f9-4ebf-ac74-0c2fd605e8d2%2Fddca3558-3aef-4233-aa2e-0aa2ce6a45a7%2Fpzw42kf_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
