The words you speak exist because of war. From Vikings raiding villages to Normans conquering England, battles rewrote the English language forever.
In this episode of Why Wars Happened, Dr. Colin Gorrie uncovers how Rome, the Vikings, and the Normans all left fingerprints on every sentence you speak today. Once you hear it, you’ll never look at English the same way again.
