In the middle ages the upper landed classes often spoke a kind of Norman French, and their legal code and other official documents were written in Latin. The king and court used a courtly French. Everyone else spoke a form of old/medieval English. There would have been Spanish, German and Italian speakers, from settlers/visitors from other "European" countries, as well as lesser known languages such as Dutch, Flemish and other dialects across Spain, France and Germany. I would imagine there would also be speakers of Hebrew (from the fluctuating Jewish population) and occasional speakers of Arabic (esp. from soldiers coming back from the Crusades).
The Catalan and Occitan languages share similarities because they both evolved from the common Vulgar Latin spoken in the region during the Middle Ages. They also share geographic proximity and have experienced significant intermingling and cultural exchange over the centuries. However, while they have similarities, they are distinct languages with their own unique characteristics and grammar.

The English language developed over a long period of time, starting with the arrival of Germanic tribes to what is now England around the 5th century AD. These tribes brought their own languages, which eventually evolved into Old English. Throughout its history, English has been influenced by various languages, including Latin, French, and Norse. Modern English started to emerge around the late Middle Ages and has continued to evolve and change ever since.

That depended on what country you're talking about and what century you're talking about. For example, in England in the 1300s, uneducated people mainly spoke dialects of Middle English.
English was spoken in the Middle Ages. Today it is referred to as Old English or Anglo Saxon, or Middle English. It was also used for recording the Anglo Saxon Chronicle and for other written works. Latin was used by the Church. French was used by the aristocracy after the Norman Conquest. Other languages were also spoken widely. During the 10th century, most of northern England was under the control of Danes, so Danish was important. Also Welsh, Cornish, and other Celtic language were spoken in some areas.

Because people didn't travel too far back then, there were many more local languages and dialects. So there was no single language that "most" people spoke. The educated classes - priests, scribes, and the like - generally spoke Latin or Greek or both.
From the time of the Roman Empire through the Middle Ages.
Latin was used everywhere in Western Europe during the Middle Ages, but only by scholars, lawyers, and the Church. Greek was used in the Byzantine Empire for just about everything. Aside from those two, vernacular languages were many and varied. Some of them were ancestors to modern language. Old High German evolved into High German, and Old English into English. A few languages, such as the Gothic languages used by Visigoths, Ostrogoths, and related groups, died out.

Irish is not based on any language, but it is a Celtic language, closely related to Scottish Gaelic and Manx, all of which came from a common Gaelic language called Middle Irish or Middle Gaelic that was spoken in the Middle Ages. The three languages were all mutually intelligible for centuries thereafter, but have since split into three distinct languages. Ultimately, all of them can be traced back to Proto-Celtic, which was the common Celtic language spoken in antiquity, from which not only the Gaelic languages, but also the Brythonic languages (Welsh, Cornish, and Breton), as well as a host of now-dead languages also descended.
