Though used as such by Leofric, the middle English word 'arseling' isn't actually derogatory in nature (or wasn't, back then). It means 'backwards/at the back'. Uhtred usually wears his sword 'arseling' for instance (on his back). This is however most likely where the British word 'arse' comes from.
The family name of the author's birth father was Oughtred and he is descended from the Saxons who took the name Uhtred. They had owned Bebbanburg (now Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland) and held it through the Danish invasion and occupation of northern Britain

The relationship between the Danes and the Saxons is thought to also be a link in language. Unlike the need for translators noted in the Vikings series, philologists suggest that the Danes and Saxons could communicate fairly well, much as a Spaniard and Portuguese can in our time with a little effort.
Unlike most other English language productions dealing with the viking age, the Danes are almost exclusively played by Scandinavian actors. Additionally, all of the Anglo-Saxon characters of the series are played by English actors to reinforce a cultural divide between Saxon and Danish characters.
