Languages

[sesame]

Much the same has happened with English and Dutch which are just two languages derived from German.

English derived from German? That is an insane idea! Or do you mean Germanic (Indo-European family of languages)?(thats true)

I prefer to think that English, French & German developed independantly from Latin & Indo-European family of languages.

In fact, French sounds very much like a twisted dialect of English. (no pun) Just my observation.
