Are you braindead? Can't you read "Italien" and "Italienisch"?
English is an island offshoot, so it diverged faster.
Same reason why Icelandic and Faroese have diverged more than any of the Scandinavian dialects
lol
>I speak Italyish
haha
Isn’t Greenlandic butt fucking retarded compared to the other nordic languages as well?
Greenlandic isn't a Norse descended language dumbass. Its an Inuit language
>Inuit
The fuck is that?
Eskimos, the native people of the Arctic coast
Native language.
>Same reason why Icelandic and Faroese have diverged more than any of the Scandinavian dialects
It's the opposite, Icelandic diverged less from Old Norse.
Ah I didn't know that. But what I meant it diverges more from the continental languages than the continental languages diverge from each other. So in the case of English even though the earliest speakers came from Frisia, Frisian still closer to Austrian German than it is to English
>Eskimos live in Greenland
I thought Greenland was uninhabited till the Vikings came over to it
It was in the area that the Vikings settled.
You thought wrong, the Norse scripts talk about the "Skraeling", and today Greenland is like 90% Eskimo 10% White/other

According to the US military it’s easier for English speakers to learn Spanish and French than German.
We’re the secret Meds.
ONly because german is autistic with their genders and conjugations.
To get where you are understood it is much easier to learn german than French
i heard that frisian is very close. also norwegian is probably closer than french or german just because the grammar is so similar
>with their genders and conjugations.
Lol no, at least with the conjugations, spanish can get crazy there. Germans still have deklinations and 1 extra gender tho
nein, not at all
gg
>Es
kek
>Es
i thought it was pretty funny
No it wasn't
i mean, technically yes, but since middle english the languages have been pretty different.
could probably argue that dutch or low german are closer though
If you come to America I buy you a free burger
lighten up my hue friend
Only if you give a green card and a kiss.
They're both part of the Germanic language family. However, over the centuries, English has been heavily influenced by Vulgar Latin/French.
