The effect of Old Norse on Old English was substantive, pervasive, and of a democratic character. [2] [27] Old Norse and Old English resembled each other closely like cousins, and with some words in common, speakers roughly understood each other; [27] in time the inflections melted away and the analytic pattern emerged.
Old English and Old Norse were related languages. It is therefore not surprising that many words in Old Norse look familiar to English speakers; e.g., armr (arm), fótr (foot), land (land), fullr (full), hanga (to hang), standa (to stand). This is because both English and Old Norse stem from a Proto-Germanic mother language.
