In the year 1066 William the Misbegotten and his fellow Normans stormed into England, took wald from the Angle-Saxan, and set up a new, French-speaking lordship. Owing to this, French words bled into English over the yearhundreds, often taking the stead of inborn words with alike meanings. Today we can hardly speak English without leaning on French borrowings, and many folks are even unaware that English is in truth a Thedish tongue. Inborn words are reckoned to score between only 20 and 33 hundredths of our overall wordstock (though our everyday speech is still mostly Thedish).
The Anglish undertaking seeks to heal English, and rid it of its outlandish crutch. We do this in three ways: first, we choose to brook the inborn words we still have over alike outlandish words ("split" instead of "separate"); twoth, we breathe life back into dead words (Old English "wuldor" [splendour] becomes "wolder"); third, we twist words and make new meanings ("firsty" becomes "original").
Just imagine. England could be an Anglo-Saxon paradise with ZERO wogoid influence. English monarchs would be named Æthelwulf or Eadwig and they wouldn't have a single French word in their pure Anglish tung. But they just had to go and get conquered by the French.
You can make a coherent sentence using only Germanic root words. You can't do the same with only Latinate or romance words. Therefore English is Germanic.
nice, easy to understand english.
>Lets just cut the crap and stop pretending that you do not belong with the nordics..
all of you just belong to germanics
It's grammar base and sentence structure is germanic but it has been so heavily mutted with Romance/Latin words that it would be very difficult to communicate today using only germanic words.
Only 26% of English words are Germanic, 58% are Romance/Latin and the rest is a mix of other languages like Greek.
Here's a list of English words that come from Romance and Latin:en.wikipedia.org
>Eye - Oog
I don’t know why this made me laugh.

Anglish is a such a cringe concept
Stop fighting over grandpa!
stop being southern european
actually a lot of hispanic names have germanic roots, even stereotypical ones like fernandez or gomez
I hope you are not from NORmandie
The -ez suffix means the same think as the -son -sen and -ov suffixes if I recall correctly.
They're all vikings and shiet.

English from 10th-11th century
opinions?
Post a norwegian sentence so i can vocaroo and prove how 100% nordic i am
Born & raised (:
Aye true. But it's my first name, Hugo. It's quite common though, so maybe I'm overreacting.
Sounds pretty Germanic.
Now I'm curious how Ostrogoth/Visigoth/Suebian/Vandal sounded.
Say:
>Jeg heter Homo-Peter
>Jeg er en stor homo og det er kjempeflott.
habit = wont
language = tongue
notable = outstanding
mirage = pipedream, daydream
altitude = height
agriculture = husbandry, tillage, soilwork
beautiful = rad, pretty, beguiling
herb = weed, wort
famous = well known, hailed
we must do away with the romance bearing on English in the same way as Romanian must do.
WE WUZ VIKANGZ
ANGLISH when
fuck frogs
fuck rome
fuck non-germanics
>habit = wont
huh?
>language = tongue
Ok, maybe
>notable = outstanding
Those are completely different tho. Notable is a much milder version of Outstanding. For something to be Notable means it's worth mentioning, but that could be just barely. It could be just barely worth mentioning, nothing that special. For something to be outstanding it must be crazy important, so important that it is absolutely vital to mention it.
>mirage = pipedream, daydream
Two different things again. Mirage means the actual physical phenomenom that happens. Litterally what you see with your own two eyes in the Desert for example. Daydream and pipedream are vague concepts that you don't physically see.
>Altitude = height
fine
>agriculture = husbandry, tillage, soilwork
no fuck off
>beautiful = rad, pretty, beguiling
So I have to sound like an 80s cool kid or an incomprehensible Viking to express what I think? Fuck off
>herb = weed, wort
Two different things. Weeds usually are unwanted pests. Herbs are useful plants that are grown on purpose.
>famous = well known, hailed
famous and hailed are two different things again. Well know could work but why use two words to say what could be said with one? Also well known traditionally is more intimate, like Paul is well know in his group of friends. Saying Paul is famous with his friends wouldn't really work in that situation.
anglos are semites
you were only supposed to take one redpill, not the whole damn bottle
English is a mutt language, just like the people who came up with the language (Americans)
