Old English Language Facts:

Old English was an early form of the English language that existed in England some 1,000 years ago. It was a West Germanic language and was very similar to Old Norse.

A large percentage of the educated and literate population, monks, clerics, etc., were competent in what was then the prevalent lingua franca, Latin. This influence of the Latin language predates the insular incursions of the Anglo-Saxons in their original continental language.

The language was further altered by the transition away from the runic futhark alphabet to the Latin alphabet was also a significant factor in the developmental pressures brought to bear on the language. Words were spelled as they were pronounced. Silent letters therefore did not often exist in Old English: for example, the Old English word for a "knight", cniht, had four distinct consonants.

The Scandinavian loanwords which were to impact on the emergent Anglo-Saxon language tend to be everyday words and those which are concerned with particular administrative aspects of the Danelaw. The number of Celtic loanwords is of a much lower order than either Latin or Scandinavian; as few as twelve loanwords have been identified as being entirely secure.

To further complicate matters, Old English was rich in dialect forms. This diversity was particularly marked until after the process of unification of the diverse Anglo-Saxon kingdoms in 878 by Alfred the Great. The four principal dialect forms of Old English were: Northumbrian, Mercian, Kentish and West Saxon.
