English has adopted thousands of words from other languages over the ages (still does). Another point to consider: Languages (no matter which ones) have been given from father to son, from mother to daughter, orally. Reading and writing made their path to England centuries later. If you're really interested in this field, I can recommend you read "Mother Tongue" by Bill Bryson. It's a very interesting read, I'm enjoying it immensely! mrs95th Joined on Tue, Jun 14 2005 New Member 04
