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 2000 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,3, Technical University of Braunschweig (Englisches Seminar), course: Historical Linguistics, language: English, abstract: The French influence on the English vocabulary had its greatest expansion in the period of the Middle English (1150 – 1500). During this time over 10,000 French words were adapted into the English language and about 75 per cent of these are still in use. The reasons for that are, firstly, the bilingualism in England which had been prevailing since the Norman Conquest in 1066. Secondly, the English culture was regarded as inferior, i.e. it had more to gain from the language spoken by the upper classes. Although, these extensive changes were important for the improvement of the English language, there were also disadvantages to it. The loss of native words, the different Middle English dialects, the need of a Standard English are only some examples for this. Does that mean the English we speak today would not have been the same, if there had been no French influence? Undoubtedly, every influence on something does change the circumstances of it, otherwise it would not be an influence. The question now would be, if English really profited from the French language or if it was more a drawback to its further development. I want to deal with this matter of fact in my research paper. I will show the historical conditions from the Norman Conquest up to the 15th century in a diachronical way, as it is important to know about the situation in England at that time to understand the changes in the English language. As the French influence hardly affected the English grammar, I only consider the changes in the vocabulary. I also briefly refer to other language borrowings to show that the French influence was not the only one, but the most effective in the period of great change – the Middle English.
