Irish Anglo-Norman was originally a West Germanic grouping of then-dialects of Middle English, which were spoken in eastern Ireland, until being classified their own languages.

Classification

Irish Anglo-Norman consisted of two languages; Fingallian, which was spoken in County Fingal, and Yola, spoken in the baronies of Forth and Bargy in County Wexford, hence the name Forth and Bargy dialect. It is a subdivision of Anglic, and has roots based on Old English, specifically the West Saxon dialect, which became the Southwestern Middle English dialect.

History

Anglo-Normans had settled in Ireland during the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland in the 1170s. They brought their language, Middle English, with them on their way. Eventually, it made its way to Ireland and split into two languages: Fingallian and Yola.

By the mid-19th century, Fingallian was under extinction, and left Yola as the only Irish Anglo-Norman language. But Yola died out later in the 19th century, which left this grouping extinct.
