The nordics contribution to the English language?

Norse influence on English is profound. The Norse people founded many important British cities, such as Dublin and York, and a large part of Britain, called the Danelaw, was under Norse control for centuries. The pronoun "they" is Norse ( the Old English word for they was the same as the word for she). All the sk- words like skiff and skirt, having English cognates in sh- ( ship and shirt ) are Norse. Also the loss of declensional endings in English is attributed in part to Norse influence.

Where does welcome come from?

"Welcome" in modern-day English comes from the Old English word "wilcuma", which literally meant well-come (as in, may you have arrived here well). This in turn came from the Old Norse "velkominn", meaning the same thing (vel + kominn in Old Norse was "well + come"). Though Old English and Old Norse are Anglo-Saxon languages, the same sort of idea appears in the Romance languages as well. For example, in Spanish it is "bienvenido" (bien = well, venido = come), French "bienvenue" (bien+venue), Italian "benvenuto" (ben+venuto), all meaning "well come".
