It started with Saxon, then the Vikings invaded and the two languages mixed, then the Normans invaded, bringing French and Latin, and English was the result.

You have received two useful answers and you will (I hope) have noticed a pattern in them. We always capitalise the names of languages, countries, nationalities etc. We also use a capital letter at the beginning of every new sentence and we always capitalise the word "I".

Please follow these patterns in future posts. Thank you.

All Scottish people speak English. Scottish Gaelic, which is a variant of Irish Gaelic, is spoken by a small minority of people in Scotland. People in much of Scotland, in common with the rest of Britain, spoke a form of the Welsh language before the invasion of the Saxons.

The member here are happy to help with problems about the English language. We are not here to re-invent the wheel. For a question such as yours, google can provide access to a wealth of information for you to check what suits you best. If you find things in the articles that you don't understand, we can help with that.

The Scottish, Irish and Welsh languages that bhaisahab mentioned are distantly related to English, in that all are members of the Indo-European family of languages. However, a person speaking only Gaelic or Welsh could not understand a person speaking only English, and vice versa. English and Gaelc/Welsh are as different as French and Russian.
