Seminar paper from the year 2003 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 2 (B), http://www.uni-jena.de/ (Anglistics/ American Studies), course: PS Introduction to Chaucer's Middle English, language: English, abstract: The English language has undergone tremendous changes over the years of its development from Old English to the Modern English as it is known today. During that time, especially during the Middle English period, several other languages exerted a significant influence and were therefore partly responsible for the changes brought to English over the years. These languages were Latin, French and Old Norse. This paper will focus on the influence of the French language on Middle English, brought on by the Norman Conquest through William the Conqueror. First there will be an explanation of the historical events, which preceded the developments in the England. Afterwards the focus of this paper will rest on the effect of the French language on the Middle English vocabulary, spelling and phonology. This will be explained on the example of an extract of Geoffrey Chaucer's The Nun's Priest Tale. During the course of this paper it will be proved that the French language was one of the main influences, which affected the English language during the Middle Ages.

Essay from the year 1998 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, University of Munster, language: English, abstract: This paper deals with the influence of the French language on the English language. The English was replaced by the French nobility. A bilingual situation was predominant: Whereas people from the upper class spoke the French language, people from lower classes spoke English. The French nobility led a separate life from ordinary people. The English language was considered to be inferior to the French language, and only people like merchants who wanted to communicate with people from the lower classes had to know the English language.

Excerpt from English Influence on the French Vocabulary In these books are found some of the earliest instances of English words in a French context. But our real landmark is the revocation of the edict of Nantes and the consequent flight of many Huguenots to England. From that date translations into French of English books abound, and the Huguenots are responsible for most of the early ones. English institutions and English ideas are boomed in the Journals of the Refugees. The seed is sown which will bear fruit in the French revolution. Dealing first with the important political and administrative vocabulary, it is well to note that two important early sources of information are the English part of Miege's Great French Dictionary, published in 1687, and the Histoire des Guerres civiles d'Angleterre, translated from Clarendon and published in six volumes, the first four of which appeared in 1704 and the last two in 1709. They will be repeatedly quoted as authorities in my lists. I shall make use of the following abbreviations. After a word I put the date of the earliest known instance of its use in French, followed by the authority: DG = Dictionnaire general de la langue francaise, by Hatzfeld and Darmesteter. B = E. Bonnaffe, Dictionnaire des Anglicismes, 1920. M = Miege, Le Grand Dictionnaire Francois, vol. ii (English-French), 1687. MLR = P. Barbier, Loan-words from English in Eighteenth-Century French in Modern Language Review, xvi. (1921). OED = The Oxford English Dictionary. Where I can quote earlier instances than are found in any of these authorities, I give the references in full. A few words appear without quotations or references; these are known to have been used in French before 1815, but the writer has been unable to find examples.

Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 2,3, University of Duisburg-Essen, language: English, abstract: This term paper is going to examine the occurrence and the influence of French words on English language. The French language has always played a significant role in English. According to Scheler, 38 per cent of English words are of French origin. This high amount leads to the result that almost half of the English vocabulary are of French origin. Due to this striking high set of statistics, the reasons for this will be examined in this paper. Thus, the main aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of French language on English language during the medieval period. This fact has been particularly pronounced over the last decades. Thus, French had influenced the English lexicon a lot due to the Norman invasion. Where two languages exist side by side for a long time, a huge delivery of words from one language to the other is inevitable. A lot of Old English words were replaced by borrowed items, from the French language. Hence, French remnants can be found a lot in English language. In certain cases, there are striking similarities between both languages, which is interesting to analyse. First, it starts with a short introduction of the historical background from the French influence on the English language. French influence is direct and observable upon the vocabulary. There will be some examples of borrowed word fields. Regardingly, derivational affixes from Old French into Middle English play a leading role in this term paper as well. In addition, the focus will also be set on the phonological difference between Norman French and Parisian French and on their influence on English language. The development of these words and their loan into the English language are enormous. Throughout the investigation, one can assume that French had influenced English the most in terms of lexicon, vocabulary and suffixation. If William the Conqueror had not invaded England in 1066, the vocabulary of English language would have looked very different. There would have existed a lot of Old English vocabulary in present day English.
