- A. French
- B. Norwegian
- C. Spanish
- D. Hungarian
The answer is A. French.
The Norman Conquest of England in 1066 by William the Conqueror had a significant impact on the English language. French became the language of the ruling class, while Old English remained the language of the common people. This interaction led to a large number of French words entering the English vocabulary.
Here’s why the other options are incorrect:
- B. Norwegian: While Vikings did raid and settle parts of Britain before the Norman Conquest, their influence on the language was much less significant than French.
- C. Spanish: Spanish had little to no direct influence on English during this period.
- D. Hungarian: Hungarian belongs to a completely different language family (Uralic) and wasn’t geographically close enough to England to have a notable impact on the language
