Middle English is the historical stage of the English language spoken in Britain roughly from the 12th century (after the Norman Conquest) to the late 15th century, which aligns with the AD 1150 to 1500 timeframe. Old English was used before the Norman Conquest (pre-11th century), Modern English emerged after the 15th century, and Scandinavian was not the dominant language of Britain in this period.
