These tribes are the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes.

Geats and Gutes merged with the Swedes in Sweden. In
England, Anglo-Saxons were also formed when the Angles
merged with the Saxons and other groups.

came from and their language.

the Thames and on the Isle of Wright.
They would establish what is known as the Kingdom

on the tribes
The Germanic branch was divided into three sub-
branches during the Roman Iron Age (1400 CE)
namely East Germanic, North Germanic, and West
Germanic. West Germanic gave birth to the English
language.
Some of the Old English words that we still have
today are live, love, heaven, fight, good, evil, man,
wife, child, sleep, eat, house, stone, rain, one, two,
three, green, black, the, an, to, for, but, around, will,
do, and, with, and compound words like mankind
and blackbird.
