This language is Cornish (a Celtic language), btw. But it somehow sounds like English if you hear it from another room.

It sounds like English.

But what if the woman also speaks English? Having English as her native language could have affected how she speaks Cornish?

Good call.

Yes, she is probably just speaking English in a Cornish accent (or vice versa - Welsh people speak English in a Welsh language accent).
