This seems like a really funny concept to me, that any language should be pure. How many millennia do we need to go back for purity? What is untainted English

This seems like a really funny concept to me, that any language should be pure. How many millennia do we need to go back for purity? What is untainted English? Only words from the Angles?
- ToValueFunfetti 1y agoYou may find Anglish amusing, then: https://anglish.org/wiki/Anglish https://anglish.org/wiki/Anglish
- SketchySeaBeast 1y agoWell, that wordbook is mighty bewitching.
- Enginerrrd 1y agoWhat's funny is my initial impression of Anglish is that it reminds me a lot of German.
- SketchySeaBeast 1y agoGiven English's "pure" roots, that should probably be entirely unsurprising.
- sorokod 1y agoNot surprising, it is a Germanic language. West Germanic, Anglo Frisian to be precise. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Frisian_languages https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Frisian_languages
