      @@AnimatedTreasure English is the most different Germanic language. Even the closest to English - Frisian or Scots (debatable some call it a dialect, some language) aren't that close.
      And in fact for example English and German share only 51% similarities which is really low compared to Russian and Ukrainian which share 62% similar words.
      I'm pretty sure to many English speakers Icelandic sounds like English that is stuck 1000 years ago.

    I find Modern English very unique as a Western Germanic language because it's the only one amongst them (as far as I know) which retained the w, þ and ð sounds of Proto-Germanic. Icelandic also retains the last two but not the w.

      Trueeee I’d say modern English has quite conservative sounds, like we’ve gotten many words from french but still preserved many sounds other Germanic languages lost. the only other west Germanic language that has those sounds is Scots, but some people consider it a dialect so it doesn’t fully count.

      French influence because of Normans. "Influence" is a french word. "Cause" in "because" is also a french word. I speak fluently french and i've learnt german. For a french speaker like me, English, since it is highly influenced by french is easier to learn as German. But i found german more beautiful since it remain close to its roots.

    What was the language of the Anglo-Saxons?
    The Anglo-Saxons spoke Anglo Saxon, a pan-Germanic language, resulting from the fusion of 4 idioms: Cimbric, Anglo and Jute languages from Denmark and Low Saxon from Germany, all together forming Anglo Saxon, one of the languages that gave vocabulary and entomology Germanic to present-day Romance, Celtic, Hellenic English. Later Anglo Saxon would evolve from its contact and vocabulary borrowing mainly from other Germanic languages, including Old Frisian and Old High German. Old Norse, which also originated from Proto-Germanic, also considerably influenced the Anglo Saxon language. This was particularly the case after the frequent Viking invasions that occurred mainly in the 9th century. It is believed that the Common Celtic British and British Latin spoken in southern England before the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons had no influence on these languages forming the Old Romance English which split in the United Kingdom into the 2 Neo-Latin dialects Anglo-French and Anglo-Norman.
    Surviving manuscripts, such as the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and the epic poem Beowulf, demonstrate that distinct dialects were spoken in the various kingdoms of the Anglo-Saxons. The four main dialects included Mercian, spoken in the Midlands, and Northumbrian, spoken north of the Humber, all resulting from the combination of Anglo Saxon with the Celtic languages Pictish, Brittonic and Scots Celtic. Kentish was spoken in Kent as a result of contact with Cornish, while West Saxon from Germany and Holland was spoken throughout the south and southwest of England, which further avoided contact with the Celtic and Latin languages while the Germanic dominated the Kingdom. United.
    Most learned members of Anglo-Saxon society also spoke several other languages. Latin and Greek and Anglese and British Latin, the languages of learning, were spoken by a few, while Cornish and Irish continued to be spoken in Cornwall and Ireland respectively. Irish was spoken by many of the missionaries who came from Ireland to help bring Christianity to the Anglo-Saxons, these missionaries were bilingual and mastered Anglo Saxon and even Old Norse, being trilingual.
    This entire cultural context favored the Frankish Norman conquest of England and which would later result in the modern and current English, Celtic, Hellenic, with Romanesque grammar and linguistics and with a mitigated, reduced Germanic vocabulary that is now spoken to this day.
