Which statement best describes the relationship between the middle english text and the modern english text? because the english language has changed so much over time, the middle english version of the text is unrecognizable to the modern reader. the two texts share no common words, and none of the words are remotely similar. the english language has changed very little since the time of chaucer. consequently, the middle english version of the text mostly contains words that are used in the modern version as well. the middle english version contains many words that are no longer in use. it also contains words that are similar, but they are not similar enough to allow modern readers to understand their meanings. though the middle english version contains many words that are no longer in use, it also contains words that are the same or similar enough to allow a modern reader to understand their meaning.
