1. Scandinavian (those who came in the end of the Old English period) — over 500 words (take, give, sky, wrong, etc.); 2. French (the language of the Norman conquerors) — over 3500 words (government, army, battle, etc.). Though the number of the French words is greater, all the Scandinavian words — common, colloquial, everyday, indispensable — entered the very core of the language, and their influence is very great. The French words are generally terms indispensable only in certain official spheres, but not colloquial.
