The article gives a one-sided.
For example, while enumerating the similarities between the Scandinavian languages and English, it fails to enumerate differences (e.g. Scandinavian languages have suffixed articles while English, Old English and German have articles before words).
It gives us some examples, but fails to give a large picture (e.g. what is the share of Norse words in the N most frequent words).
- tehwalrus 14y agoindeed; smacks of cherry picking. I would also have liked to see those stats compared with the same ones for German, since that was also part of the hypothesis.
