Why does the English language use so many e's?

It's hard to say exactly why the language uses the letter so frequently, especially since Proto-English (Old Old English) and Old English use the letter so infrequently. Although Latin lightly influenced Old English, and Old Norse strongly did, the letter e did not come into so much use until the arrival with the French. Anglo-Norman English, or Middle English, is where the e comes into great use - first, because of the French ties, and second, because the language's speakers and writers tended to tack the letter, and its sound, on pretty much everywhere. Still, the widespread use of the letter e comes from the French influences on the language.
