Very nicely done, and humorous animation! It should be pointed out that the loss of inflections and word order change had very little to do with the Norman Conquest, and was well underway before 1066. Albeit French had a massive impact on English, it was chiefly on the level of words, and not structural. It is a common misconception that 'only the lower classes' spoke English - the large majority of the population were monolingual English speakers and speakers of French were always in minority.

Street is a Germanic word.

Shall in anglo-saxon is sceal and dumb is dumb. They are Germanic words that have always been in our language although it is true that the word dumb did change its meaning from mute to stupid due to other Germanic influences. Enjoy is from the Normans but as well changed in meaning. Some of your histories a bit off too, but that's okay.

"shall" (= "skal" in Danish ) is a Germanic word - but maybe the Normans had kept it, when they started to speak Old French in Normandy?

Not 100 % correct, but still very amusing.
"Aethelred became friends with William" ?!? Was he even born at that stage?
Other N words in E: tree (træ),knife(kniv),they,them (dem),give,take,sling(slyng),dale(dal),sister (søster), die(dø). Also the very complex OE grammar changed a lot -> Middle E.
& don't forget that the AS & the V already spoke closely related tongues. Even now the traces of this can be found EVERYWHERE, which fort. makes it fairly easy for us in Scand. to learn E.
