hahaha
old english and frisian
is just german with a weird accent :D
that explains why it is being said in language science that english has germanic roots ^^
german speakers can probably understand (if they understand weird accents :D)
listen:
just lovely ^^
Haha, there's much similarities between the two in terms of pronunciation. Despite the little friction between them, they were able to communicate and understand each other.
Interesting, cause as a Dutch guy i can understand and speak English better than Fries. Sometimes its even easier to understand German than Fries.
I'm guessing there isn't much difference between German and Fries much like with old English. Legend has it that all languages where one at some point in the past.
