I have to say, historically speaking, It was probably [[Middle English]] at 1300-1400 CE, maybe with the first signs of the [[Great Vowel Shift]], so it might bleed into the [[Early Modern English]] era.  Either way, it's not pure [[Modern English]].  Sorry, mate.

I have to say, historically speaking, It was probably Middle English at 1300-1400 CE, maybe with the first signs of the Great Vowel Shift, so it might bleed into the Early Modern English era. Either way, it's not pure Modern English. But if you have any questions about the era or the language(s) of English, feel free to ask me. Sorry. --Blackkdark 13:39, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
