About Old English & Old Norse
Old English (Anglo-Saxon) was spoken in England from approximately 450 to 1150 AD. It is a West Germanic language far removed from modern English — closer to modern German or Dutch — and is the language of Beowulf, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, and the works of Ælfric. Old Norse, spoken by the Vikings, heavily influenced Old English and shares grammatical features with it.
