Old English (Old English: Englisc), also known in New English as Anglo-Saxon, is the shape of the English tung spoken in England in between the 5th hundredyear and the 12th hundredyear. It is a West Teutonish tung, more narrowly an Ingweonish or North Sea Teutonish tung, like Old Friesish and Old Saxish. It is also akin to Old Northish (and therefore New Icelandish), although less nearly akin, as these are North Teutonish tungs.
