The layout is usually implied as a separate branch in regards to the tree model. According to this reading, English together with Frisian would hold had a proximal ancestral develope in common that no other attested house shares. The early Anglo-Frisian varieties, like Old English and Old Frisian, and the third Ingvaeonic corporation at the time, the ancestor of Low German Old Saxon, were spoken by intercommunicating populations. While this has been cited as a reason for a few traits exclusively dual-lane up by Old Saxon and either Old English or Old Frisian, a genetic unity of the Anglo-Frisian languages beyond that of an Ingvaeonic subfamily cannot be considered a majority opinion. In fact, the groupings of Ingvaeonic and West Germanic languages are highly debated, even though they rely on much more innovations and evidence. Some scholars consider a Proto-Anglo-Frisian language as disproven, as far as such postulates are falsifiable. Nevertheless, theties and strong similarities between the Anglic and the Frisian formation are element of the scientific consensus. Therefore, the concept of Anglo-Frisian languages can be useful and is today employed without these implications.

Geography isolated the settlers of Great Britain from Continental Europe, except from contact with communities capable of open water navigation. This resulted in more Old Norse and Norman language influences during the developing of Modern English, whereas the modern Frisian languages developed under contact with the southern Germanic populations, restricted to the continent.
