	The term [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Anglish "Anglish"] was made up by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Jennings_(British_author) Paul Jennings] in his 1966 [https://anglish.org/wiki/Punch_Articles_by_Paul_Jennings Punch Articles]. However, the desire to remove [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign-language_influences_in_English#Word_origins foreign influence] from the English language is a tradition that goes back all the way to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Conquest Norman invasion] in 1066. The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normans Normans] were a Germanic, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Norse Old Norse]-speaking tribe that raided and settled a part of France that is now known as Normandy. After a few generations, they adopted the French language before [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_the_Conqueror William I] took over England. The French-speaking Normans being in positions of power throughout England is what led to the adoption of much of the foreign vocabulary that is in modern English today.		<p>The term [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Anglish "Anglish"] was made up by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Jennings_(British_author) Paul Jennings] in his 1966 [https://anglish.org/wiki/Punch_Articles_by_Paul_Jennings Punch Articles].

	Many English writers throughout history, such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Wilson_(rhetorician) Thomas Wilson] or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Ascham Roger Ascham], have spoken out against the use of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inkhorn_term "Inkhorn Terms"] or the needless borrowing of words from foreign languages as a fashion statement, something that happened often in the 16th and 17th centuries. English scholar, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cheke John Cheke] wrote, ''"I am of this opinion that our own tung should be written cleane and pure, unmixt and unmangeled with borowing of other tunges; wherein if we take not heed by tiim, ever borowing and never paying, she shall be fain to keep her house as bankrupt."''		<p>Many English writers throughout history, such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Wilson_(rhetorician) Thomas Wilson] or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Ascham Roger Ascham], have spoken out against the use of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inkhorn_term "Inkhorn Terms"] or the needless borrowing of words from foreign languages as a fashion statement, something that happened often in the 16th and 17th centuries.

	[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Barnes William Barnes], a writer and poet from the 19th century, famously called for the removal of Latin, French, and Greek vocabulary from English and promoted Anglo-Saxon substitutes, like ''wortlore'' for botany and ''welkinfire'' for meteor. More about Barnes was documented by author [https://pureenglish.org/category/william-barnes-2/ Andrew Phillips] in his book [https://www.asbooks.co.uk/t%20rebirth-barnes.htm "The Rebirth of England and English."]		<p>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Barnes William Barnes], a writer and poet from the 19th century, famously called for the removal of Latin, French, and Greek vocabulary from English and promoted Anglo-Saxon substitutes, like ''wortlore'' for botany and ''welkinfire'' for meteor.

	In the 20th century, William Strunk Jr. wrote in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elements_of_Style ''The Elements of Style''], ''"Do not be tempted by a twenty-dollar word when there is a ten-center handy, ready, and able. Anglo-Saxon is a livelier tongue than Latin, so use Anglo-Saxon words"''. The British Prime Minister, [https://www.vaguelyinteresting.co.uk/3435/ Winston Churchill], once said, ''"Broadly speaking, short words are best, and the old words, when short, are best of all."'' This attitude of keeping speech down to earth is something that shows up in many political speeches in English-speaking countries in an attempt to better connect with the average person. Another 20th-century author, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elias_Molee Elias Molee], called for a fully Germanic language for Americans that he called "Amerikan". One of Molee's books was titled [https://archive.org/details/pure-saxon-english "Pure Saxon English"]. An American science fiction and fantasy [https://poulandersonappreciation.blogspot.com/ author], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poul_Anderson Poul Anderson], is known for writing [https://anglish.org/wiki/Uncleftish_Beholding Uncleftish Beholding], a short text explaining atomic theory with only Germanic words.		<p>In the 20th century, William Strunk Jr. wrote in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elements_of_Style ''The Elements of Style''], ''"Do not be tempted by a twenty-dollar word when there is a ten-center handy, ready, and able.

	More recently in the 21st century, author David Cowley released his book [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7365004-how-we-d-talk-if-the-english-had-won-in-1066 ''"How We'd Talk If the English Had Won in 1066"''], among others, that goes into depth on the vocabulary and sound changes that happened to English as a result of Norman influence. (Though it is worth noting that [https://languagehat.com/anglish-redivivus/ some linguists] disagree and think English still would have borrowed many French words anyway.) Even for authors who are not seeking to purify English, understanding the distinction between Latinate and Anglo-Saxon vocabulary is a [https://adronjsmitley.blogspot.com/2023/10/anglo-saxon-vs-latinate-voice-or-how-to.html tool] used by some well-known fiction writers, like Stephen King.		<p>More recently in the 21st century, author David Cowley released his book [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7365004-how-we-d-talk-if-the-english-had-won-in-1066 ''"How We'd Talk If the English Had Won in 1066"''], among others, that goes into depth on the vocabulary and sound changes that happened to English as a result of Norman influence.
