It is possible that Old Irish did not survive the conquest and domination of the island by Norse-speaking Vikings, so that the modern Manx language may represent a later, revived form (derived from Middle Irish). During the 8th century AD, the inhabitants of the Isle of Man, like those in coastal areas of Scotland and Ireland, were significantly influenced by Norse speakers. While Norse had very little impact on the Manx language overall, most modern place names on Man are Norse in origin, e.g. Laxey (Laksaa) and Ramsey (Rhumsaa). Other Norse legacies in Manx include loanwords and personal names.
