It is a very great thing that so many peoples now speak languages with clear common roots buried behind the deviations of use; and outmost interesting to recognize the plan and the deep thought in those radixes.
- anthk 6mo ago"Conocimiento, conocer" in Spanish (to know).
- wolfi1 6mo agoisn't Spanish some form of Latin (being colonized by Rome for centuries), what I would be interested in, if there are some Vandal leftovers in nowadays Spanish

- anthk 6mo agoGuerra, perro, more that I can't remember, and a good chunk of names (in Spanish): https://muyinteresante.okdiario.com/historia/60526.html https://muyinteresante.okdiario.com/historia/60526.html Well, let's see: Perro, guerra, mes, pagar, ver, fuego, tierra, cima, perro, clero, altar, tribunal, rey... lots more. Tapa, dardo, ganso, ropa, guardia, sala, cama, barro, guijarro, zarza... more than anyone would think. Aspa, espía, brotar... and the -engo suffix. Visicothic and Celtic cultures are more ingrained in the North/Middle of Spain more than anyone would think despite everyone pictured it as a 100% Mediterranean culture. Rico/rich, fresco/fresh, Blanco/blank, ganar/win... is not a coincidence. Heck, tons of Medieval lore in the Castilles use a Gothic typeface... Engo/enco suffix in words, related to -ingos in Gothic. On names and surnames... Alonso, Alfonso, Guillermo, Fernando, Hernando, Hernández, López, -everything ending with -ez-, Leovigildo, Rodrigo and tons more.
