Ancient Anglo-Saxon. The “gentrified” language was the French words that evolved into the language after the French Conquest around 1066 CE.Any words that are considered vulgar to us are exactly that.The translation of vulgar is “common”. If the English had of won that war, French would have been the vilified language.
