when will yuropoors stop linguistically appropriating our language? is it payback for stealing 30% of all french words?
>>
it's beautiful because the defining trait of english is the ability to take in foreign words

now we are passing on that ability

The year is Three Thousand and X.

The official language of the world is not English as today we know but as the Europeans have made it.


The English of the natural Anglophone countries is seen as non real dialect. Real English is spoken in Sweden, the most multicultural country of them all. Everyone, even the formerly natural English speakers, must learn the new English.

the normans only employed french in the nobility and government

the words naturally flowed to the commoners who did not speak french, english was not replaced just spoken by a different part of the population
