English is a mixture of languages including Latin, from when the Romans invaded, French-think of William the Conqeuror, Scandinavian languages, from the Viking invasions, Germanic languages brought by the Angles and Saxons (which is where Anglo-saxon comes from) and the indiginous languages such as Gaelic.
