Answer:

What language was spoken in the british isles when the romans arrived?

In Britain, the Celtic language is known as Brythonic and was spoken throughout Britain when the Romans arrived in 55 BC. Pictish, spoken then in central and northern Scotland, was probably not of Indo-European origin.
