Correct Answer is (C) [
You are absolutely correct! C. Celtic languages were not widely spoken during the Anglo-Norman period in England.
Here’s a breakdown of the language landscape in Anglo-Norman England:
- Latin: Dominated the religious and scholarly spheres for centuries. It remained an important language of administration and education even after the Norman Conquest.
- French: Introduced by the Normans in 1066, French became the language of the nobility and the ruling class. It influenced English vocabulary and pronunciation significantly.
- English (Old English): Spoken by the common people, Old English continued to be used but gradually evolved under the influence of French.
- Celtic: While Celtic languages, like Brythonic in Wales and Cornwall, were spoken in some parts of Britain before the Anglo-Saxon invasions, they were largely pushed westward and marginalized by the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons and later the Normans.
