	Wikinfo \| Saxon
		Some Saxons, along with Angles, Jutes and Frisians, invaded Britain in the early Middle Ages, giving their names to the kingdoms of Essex, Sussex and Wessex (the lands respectively of the East, South and West Saxons), which with the shorter-lived Middlesex eventually became part of the kingdom of England.
		A majority of the Saxons remained in continental Europe, forming from the 8th century the Duchy of Saxony.
		The label "Saxons" was generally applied to German settlers who migrated during the 13th century to south-eastern Transylvania in present-day Romania, where their descendants numbered a quarter of a million in the early decades of the 20th century.

	Omniglot - the blog » Blog Archive » How old is your language?
		When researching the background of the Siraiki language, which I’ve just added to Omniglot, I came across a claim that this language might be “the oldest language … of the world”.
		Languages change all the time and when you look at the history of a particular language, you can’t say with any degree of certainity exactly when it first appeared.
		I agree, it is difficult, and rather pointless, to claim the age of a language as it is a living thing and is constantly changing.

	Languages in Medieval England by Gillian Polack
		The language of beautiful literature was Old French, with England suddenly blooming in the fourteenth century.
		Older forms of the language would have been used for long after 1100 - they were just not everyone's favorite style for writing.
		But the percentage of people who could read and write were considerably lower than now, and so large numbers of people used several languages happily without an inkling of nouns, verbs and parsing.

		Its usage covered a period of some 700 or so years from approximately 450 AD to some time after the Norman invasion in 1066 when the language underwent a major and dramatic transition, during a period which is (generally) now referred to as Middle English.
		During the 700 years in which it was in use it assimilated some aspects of the indigenous pre-Celtic languages, some of the Celtic languages which it came into contact with, some of the two variants of the invading Scandinavian languages occupying and controlling the Danelaw, and Norman French in the wake of 1066.
		The language was further altered by the transition away from the runic alphabet (also known as "futhark") to the Latin alphabet, which was also a significant factor in the developmental pressures brought to bear on the language.

	Old English language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is a West Germanic language and therefore is closely related to Old Frisian and Old Saxon.
		During this early period it assimilated some aspects of the languages with which it came in contact, such as the Celtic languages and the two dialects of Old Norse from the invading Vikings, who were occupying and controlling large tracts of land in northern and eastern England, which came to be known as the Danelaw.
		Like other West Germanic languages of the period, Old English was fully inflected with five grammatical cases, which had dual plural forms for referring to groups of two objects (but only in the personal pronouns) in addition to the usual singular and plural forms.

		The portmanteau word would have entered literature without the work of Dodgson; after the new algebra of the nineteenth century and its parent philosophy of language, it was inevitable that what has come to be termed "semeiotics", the study of symbols, would become more explicit in literature just as it had in the sciences.
		Many computer scientists, uncomfortable with the freedom, intractability, and continual evolution of natural languages as eighteenth-century natural scientists were uncomfortable with the proposal of arbitrary taxonomies and as Hamilton was uncomfortable with the arbitrariness of the rules of abstract algebra, try to live in a make-believe universe of static languages.
		Perhaps the justification is that the regular languages can be generated by very simple rules, in which case a better term than "regular" would have been "simple".

		The present Dutch standard language is largely based on Low Franconian dialects spoken in the Low Countries deriving from Old Frankish, the language of the Franks.
		Dutch is the language of government, education, and, to varying extents, daily life in Flanders, the Northern part of Belgium.
		Moreover, and especially in Belgium, the difference between the standard language and the language people speak (their local dialect or, more often, a version of the standard language heavily influenced by it) can be very important and cause difficulties.
