Decline of English (1066-1204)

There were some factors which contributed to the decline of English in this period:

a. The most important one was the Norman invasion, headed by William the Conqueror in 1066. With the victory in the Battle of Hastings French conquered and unified England.
b. There were also deaths of many Anglo Saxon nobles, so Frenchmen were put an all high offices: from government administration to senior church positions. Moreover, kings of England spoke French, took French wives and lived mostly in France; the English court was French-speaking. 
c. So, English began to lack prestige. Latin was the written language of the church and secular documents, and very little written English survived from this period.
d. In that way, there was a development of bilingualism among Norman officials; there were some marriages between French and English people, etc.

  3. I WAS CURED OF HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS BY DR GUBA, THE GREAT HERBALIST.
    I am so happy to share this testimony with the world because generally there are so many doubts about the cure of HERPES simplex virus. This is real, take it seriously, my name is HENRIETTE AMUNAZO and I am so happy that today I can give this testimony to the world and also help people who have been condemned just as I was. Who will believe that a herb can cure HERPES completely from the body?, i never believed that this will work, i have spend a lot of money getting drugs from the hospital to suppress outbreaks, it got to a time that all i was wanted was death to come because i was broke and i already have strong outbreaks from the herpes virus. One day i was going through the internet asking questions online just to know more about the latest development in the medical sector to see if there is still hope then i stumbled on a post about this great man called DR GUBA, through an online friend who publicly made a testimony on how she was also cured of herpes simplex virus 2 by this herbal doctor who is well known for his strong ancient herbal practice for HERPES, HIV, WARTS and CANCER cure. At first I doubted both the woman and the doctor just as so many that see this post would doubt because medically it has been proven impossible but later I decided to give him a try so I emailed him. I did not believe him that much, I just wanted to give him a try. He replied to my mail and needed some Information about me, then I sent them to him, he prepared herbal medicine (CURE) and sent it through Online Courier Service for delivery. He gave my details to the Courier Office. They told me that 3-5 days I will receive the package and after receiving it, i took the medicine as prescribed by him at the end of 13days that the medicine lasted, he told me to go to the hospital for a test, and i went, surprisingly after the test the doctor confirm me Herpes simplex virus free, i thought it was a joke, i went to other hospitals and was also confirmed herpes free, i will say it was like a miracle. I waited to see if i will get any outbreaks again and it's been 2 months now, i have not experienced any outbreak. Thank you sir for saving my life even if you cannot see this post, I shall never stop testifying the impact you made in my life by restoring back my life when I was being stigmatized and even avoided by family and friends. I promise I will always testify of your good works. if you have herpes simplex virus, HIV patient, Diabetes, human papilloma virus or genital warts, contact him and I am sure you will get cured, contact him via:
