Best Answer
AnswerEnglish comes from Old English ( formerly known as Anglo-Saxon ) and Norman French. The core vocabulary and basic grammar of English is Germanic, one of the branches of the Indo-European family of languages. Norman French, a germanized form of vulgar Latin, which is from the Italo-Celtic branch of the IE family, added to English a second vocabulary and grammar. Having two word hoards and two grammatical structures is a major part of the unique expressive wealth and power of English.
