'''Common Brittonic''' is the name given to the [[Celtic]] language spoken in [[Great Britain]] from the later centuries BC until c. 500 AD. It would ultimately evolve into the modern Brittonic (or Brythonic) languages [[Welsh Language|Welsh]], Cornish and Breton (via Britons who took refuge in what is now [[Brittany]]), as well as Cumbric and Pictish, both of which have been extinct since medieval times. In modern-day England, Brythonic languages were largely replaced by [[Old English]] starting in the mid-5th century, and by Goidelic Celtic in much of Scotland.
