OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean, B and C

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

Ok thanks, I was thinking it was B and D but wasn't positive on the language

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

really, I thought that English was the common language ....?

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

So did I, i though it would be B and D, so I'm not sure which one it is because they think its french

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

*thought

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I know that Russian nobility adopted or I should say copied the French language, but I have never heard the same about England.

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I can be wrong, but I am fairly sure that it is more like D, than C.

OpenStudy (hockeychick23):

yea, in the reading i did it said "Middle English represents a natural evolution of Anglo-Saxon English, but it also incorporates French influences that are absent in Old English. Though its more similar to modern english than the old english of beowulf, middle english is still different enough to need translation."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not 100% sure if it's B and C though
