I tend to be very literal in general. But I wonder if it's because Angles and Saxons are real people to me? Not a concept. So Anglo Saxon means related to those peoples. (And me for that matter. - Well, Saxon anyway. Not sure about Angles. Where did they settle? And why are the Jutes always left out?)
