Description
Old English, also known as Anglo-Saxon, was the language spoken in England and southern Scotland from roughly the 5th to the 12th centuries. Rooted in Germanic origins, it features a complex grammar system and vocabulary vastly different from today's English, making it challenging for modern readers to understand without study. This historical language laid the foundation for Middle and Modern English, offering a window into the literature, culture, and daily life of the Anglo-Saxon era.
