Dear Sandy

By the time the Romano-British were facing the Anglo-Saxons the Roman
invasion was roughly 400 years  in the past. There was no Roman assistance
with which to ally. Any borrowings would have been before this date. In fact
they may not have been borrowings but part of the evolving of a Lingua
Latina.

Regards

Edwin Deady

There are certainly strong historical connections between Latin
> and Welsh due, perhaps, to a late alliance as the ancient Britons
> used their Roman connections in an attempt to hold back other
> invaders
