For 200 years after 1066, all of England‘s rulers spoke French. Kings, earls, barons, and bishops were French. They knew enough English to give orders to their servants, but no more. “Old English“, as we call it, was the language of the peasants. But there were far more peasants than lords. In time, English took over, and by the year 1400 everyone spoke it. By then, though, it was a mixture of “Old English“ and the French the Normans brought to England.
