Ever heard of switzerland? Haha

Yes, Switzerland as well!

Wait untill you hear Limburgish (actually getting more recognizion as a language) and West Flemish. So small yet still very diverse in dialects.

And in Spain we have Euskera (from the Basque Country) which is the only language on the Peninsula that doesn't come from Latin and has its own origin.

​@@LilooD je'mappelle frikandel

All got the same base, an old german accent

@@Eysenbeiss English is 30% French and 30% German, we're a hybrid! We, in the UK, know more about the grammatical structures and history of the language compared to Americans as we're taught about it in school

That is because they ARE related to eachother. There was even a time in history in which the norse languages had an influence on the English language, just compare words like "knife" and "egg" to modern Swedish. And the word "tree" could have had similar origins. If you want to find out more, look up Old Saxon, Old Frisian, and Old English languages and also search for Jutts and Vikings. I could imagine that a word like "spell" is related to German "Spiel" and Dutch "spel", with according verbs like "spielen" and "speelen" respectively, known as "playing" in English. I was intigued by a Norwegian lottery advertising poster in Norway saying "spiller du ikke, winner du ikke." - reminding me of what it would be in German: "Spielst du nicht, gewinnst du nicht." I was kind of mesmerised by the similarity (but not animated to play in the lottery) of the phrasing. English translation: "If you don't play, you don't win." I could see the magic of the moment you would actually win a considerable amount of cash or prize, though - hence the connection between playing and winning...

@@2RANbit ... Seriously? It's kinda ironic that someone who knows the history of languages doesn't understand sarcasm...

I understand you are being sarcastic, but, anywaym it is hardly surprising as they are all Germanic languages. English is a bit of a hybrid though because, although it is mostly Germanic, it has a lot of words with Latin roots that were either borrowed from Old French (when the Normans invaded and ruled England in the Middle Ages) or were added to the language as learned words in the early Modern Age.

Who ever said that must've had an scrambled head..

The German equivalent to Tyr is Tiu or Ziu.

If you speak French, you should understand a bit of Spanish and, even more so, Italian. French and Italian actually have a very high lexical overlap.

@@Wonkess_Chonkess Reading Dutch is actually easy for Germans, isn't it?

@@thorbjrndalsgaard5199 Tyr/Mars, Thor/Jupiter and Frigg/Venus are pretty straightforward analogies though. (Well you could argue Jupiter being associated with either Odin or Thor, but that's about it.) The Mercury shift to Odin is prerty wild though.

the curiosity is that the Romance / Latin languages changed the day of Saturn (God) For the day of the "Sabbath (✡️): Sábado🇪🇦(:🇵🇹),Sabato🇮🇹,Samedi🇫🇷,Sâmbătă"🇹🇩😊

Samstag also comes from Sabbath if I'm not mistaken, otherwise also known as Sonnabend (day before Sunday).

"Voiture" in French is a cognate of "viatura" in Portuguese but "viatura" in Brazil at least is used only to refer to police cars. More generally, it is a formal/technical word to refer to any vehicle that transports people or goods. The ordinary word for a personal vehicle like an English "car" is "carro" in Portuguese. Another interesting fact is that, although they say "voiture" in France, the most common word for "car" in Quebec French is actually "char".

True! Our language is probably the most consistent when it comes to reading&writing words… Even with mistakes it will be understandable because you literally write it exactly as it sounds. As a child I couldn’t understand the idea of “spelling contest” in English/American movies xD it was just so absurd… Then I had to learn English and I understood why… Because you are never sure how certain word should be written correctly… “Island”? Just ignore “s” because why not! “C”? Sometimes use it as “C” and sometimes as “K”. “Queue”? Just say “qu” and ignore all the rest! So annoying - but French is likely even worse.

@Ryou_ 【999haven】 I'm a spaniard from the south and it's not a rare word, how old are you to say that you have NEVER heard it or say it? I'm 33 and i've heard it so many times... For example, each time they talk about sharks in the media that word is used, to no repeat tiburón, they change and say escualo.

It's also used in common speak in Mexico, my veterinary's clinic is called "can & cat" in play with the English word for "gato". It may appear cánido and felino as academic to a foreigner studying the language but not for a native speaker, as I said "can" is well understood and there's a brand for cat food called "Félix", a given name and a play on felino. Akula is shark in Russian, probably the same root as escualo.
