Why do you keep thinking English is a Germanic language?
Beacuse Germanics want to pretend that we are relevant
English is a mixed language. It's as germanic as latin.
>>69574370
no it is mostly latin
>>69574271
Because the grammar is almost entirely Germanic and that is what matters. Stop being retarded
>>69574271
English IS a GERMANIC language.
>>69574271
Because vocabulary is not the only thing that matters in a language
>>69574438
English is mostly latin in vocabulary and mostly germanic in grammar
>>69574271
Because it is.

"Germanic grammar" what's that? German and Scandinavian languages have very different grammar.
>>69574873
well, you're right. but english core evolved from the germanic language that saxons spoke.
>>69574647

not how all the simple words are Germanic, lol. Even real Germanic languages have alot of latin loanwords, since we literaly can't talk about science or philosophy without them.
Not that Germanics ever had any interests in those things anyway.
>>69574271
because we never use the french words
>>69574873
hybridized danish and dutch grammar, specifically. bongs were getting cucked by immigrants way before it was cool

he said "not how all the simple words "
I simply corrected it
Why are Latins so obsessed with proclaiming that English is a Latin country? Do they want to feel relevant by proxy?
>>69586420
Latin tongue*
They feel inferior and are angry the international lingua franca isn't a Latin language
It's a bit complex, however. The continental languages have a lot more in common with each other than they do with English as far as phonetics are concerned. I recall reading somewhere that German and French have more similar phonetics than French has with with Spanish and Italian. Anyone who has studied the major western European languages would notice that. They say that French sounds so different from Spanish and Italian on account of the Gauls and Franks. My guess is that German phonetics are more similar to French due to the Germanic origin of the Franks.
Nice thread

Is this some sort of joke ?
>>69586587
nice b8
But it is just because the "Gemans" are in fact Gauls in denial
Same goes for the Franks aka Sicamri who are merely Germanized Gauls.
