Excerpt from Historical English and DerivationGenie - The language spoken by the ancient Britons was a form of Celtic, similar to what was spoken by kindred tribes in Wales and Cornwall. The English, when they came, paid no attention to this Celtic speech, though they picked up a few words accidentally, but after their conversion to Christianity they adopted the same forms of the Roman letters as those used by the conquered Britons.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
