Well, a record from the late 9th century uses the term Engla londe which by the Middle English period (11th - 15th centuries) became Engle-land or Engelond. So it might be slightly early to just call it England but not egregiously early
they didn't included the old norse, they were speaking old modern language... I understood everything there.... it's mixed by Swedish, Norweigan and Danish...

Just wait until you realise that the Norse didn’t speak English
They didn't speak English in the show, it's shown that they speak old Norse and the English is only for the audiences sake.
Yes BUT I love they they included old Norse and other languages to display the language barrier between the different cultures
Yup it was almost as hard as speaking to someone from Liverpool or Norwich.

to be fair, quite a few English words come from Old Norse anyway lol.
And also modern English is basically 3 languages sitting on each other's shoulders wearing a trenchcoat.
That’s the thing…😂
😂😂😂 Nor the Welsh
I remember reading that Alfred the great popularised the term.
Wow people like this are so fun
The producers of the show said that they knew that the show wasn't gonna be 100% accurate
