Water is a Middle English word, coming from the Old English wæter.

Old English, or Anglo-Saxon, was spoken in parts of Britain up till about 1100.

William the Conqueror defeated Harold at The Battle of Hastings (1066) and established a Norman court in England. From then on Middle English was spoken.

In 1470 the printing press was invented, the English language become more standardized and it gradually turned into what English speakers speak today.
