Maybe she has a talent for Germanic languages only...

I am sure that French has Germanic influences, I will try to find proof of said statement.

French is a Roman language and German is a Germanic language, Corran

That is completely irrelevant, Corran. Yerssot is talking classifications, and French is classified as Romantic. It is more to do with how they work than where they come from. English is Germanic even though it has influences from just about every Western European language.

Corran, almost every language has some connections with another language.
Dutch is connected to German, and with the help of dialect it is also connected to French (although Dutch-Dutch and Flemish-Dutch may have their differences here)

I do not dispute anything either of you are saying, I initially stated that French has Germanic influences.

if you look to every language, they all have influences from a lot of other languages

Ok... is there any particular reason you stated that, then? Because the way you said it certainly implied opposition to what myself and yerssot said.

I wish we spoke old norse up here in Norway instead of this Danish innfluensed thing we speak now

would be like on Iceland

almost not quite though

try and get it back to it's former glory, finti

Hmmm to late for me, maybe Live can learn it

why? You're not 80... I thought

Too late for me, it is a hard language to learn. The kind you need to learn at a young age to master it.

how do you mean? you still have lots of years to learn

Trust me that language is difficult as hell, if you start from a young age then it will stick, now no chance

okay, well, start teaching her then 🙂

You right and to old too
