nothing even close.
there are plenty of notes that the north of England's spoken dialect was considered to be almost a different language to that of the south, and that again was as far removed from the Lowlander Scots' use of English.
Spelling was just as optional - or should that be "spyllng wys jyst asse optiounal" - or "spellinge wass juste aus oportunalle" or any of a thousand other ways, with no real standard, or even consistency in written work - it was'NT until the development of the printing press that spelling became consistent.
the only real "standardised" language in the era was latin, which was used by the church throughout Europe.
