I saw a documentary on History Channel International that said most of our "English" language is derived from French, not Latin as most would think.
Many languages have similar words, my sister-in-law is from Italy and can make out quite a bit of Spanish. I on the other hand hear anything other than plain English and my eyes glaze over and I am completely lost.
Heres my word though, conchdubidderflick.
I hope its not a for real word to someone somewhere where I'm saying something I shouldnt, maybe it has something to do with killing flies? lol
