Editing Norwegian language (section)

===The Roman alphabet===
Around 1030, Christianity came to [[Scandinavia]], bringing with it an influx of [[Latin]] borrowings and the [[Roman alphabet]]. These new words were related to [[Catholic church|church]] practices and ceremonies, although many other loanwords related to general culture also entered the language.

The Scandinavian languages at this time are not considered to be separate languages, although there were minor differences among what are customarily called Old Icelandic, [[Old Norwegian]], [[Old Gutnish]], Old Danish, and [[Old Swedish]].
