The Middle English creole hypothesis is the conjecture that the English language is a creole, i.e. , a language that developed from a pidgin. The vast differences between Old and Middle English have led some historical linguists to claim that the language underwent creolisation at the time of either the Norse or Norman Conquests, or during both.
