      Latin a language of contact. Anglo-Norman spoke. Lived in close quarters with English. Would French have remained primary in such a context?

      Some suggest that they must have developed good English. Evidence of Anglo jewish women helps us tell a new story.

      Various kinds of evidence for Hebrew use among Jewish women in England. Evidence of their use of Hebrew writing, books, and legal documents. Woman sought control of household Hebrew books in one case.

      Another woman went to court to get her dead husbands books. Her daughter later did tried to do so as well through her grandfather. Women understood to have strongest claim on books.

      Also made claims on Latin and Anglo Norman books. Legal cases suggest a trade in books between Jewish women and universities such as Oxford.

      Hebrew a major language of record in England. Evidence of Englishing of Jewish names. Naming practices give some slight sense of linguistic culture. Names of French, Hebrew, German, English, Norse, Breton origin for Jewish women attested. Many translations of Hebrew names

      Men consistently used their hebrew names, so Jewish women’s names provide more linguistic evidence. Anglo Jews adapted Hebrew for vernacular sounds, transliterated characters for French and English words and descriptions. Not clear that French was dominant.

      Many words transliterated were both French and English, but also specifically English words like “House.” Consistent usage that suggests immersion in both French and English. Who did women speak to? Who did they need to speak to? What languages did their children hear?

      Many points of contact between jewish and Christian women. Christian women worked in jewish households, despite official rulings. They worked as wet nurses in Jewish households, etc. concern over this persisted among Christian and Jewish authorities.

      If we consider what languages would be spoken in such environments, we MUST include English. Linguistic diversity almost certain. Significant to our understanding of anti-Jewish polemic literature.

      Women’s ability to speak and understand multiple languages key to these tales. Code-switching is consistent among women in anti-Jewish literature, an English Christian stereotype of jewish women as “multi-tongued.”

          This evidence suggests scholarly ideas of Jewish linguistic “otherness” in England are incorrect.
