Best Answer

In the year 1300 nobody spoke English (that is, modern English). The language spoken in most of England was Middle English, which was not spoken anywhere else. An example of this language is this text (the Lord's Prayer):

Oure fadir that art in heuenes, halewid be thi name; thi kyndoom come to; be thi wille don in erthe as in heuene: gyue to us this dai oure breed ouer othir substaunce; and forgyue to us oure dettis, as we forgyuen to oure gettouris; and lede us not in to temptacioun, but delyuere us fro yuel.

Certain parts of England were still speaking their own ancient and traditional languages instead of Middle English; in Cornwall, everyone spoke Kernowek, while on the Isle of Man everyone spoke Manx Gaelic.
