For those confused, a nice simple summing up of Indo-European:

Surely the classifications are a little wide - so many downers are Indo-European, it would be interesting to see what actual languages were spoken as well...
But hey, Indo-European it is though.

I'm just an average American kid, so...
Mother is American derived English (father also) ---> American derived English kid, who has a fancy for Sindar, with some (but very few) aspects of Ebonics. Heritage of parents includes Northern and Southern Irish, Scottland, England, and a tad bit of German/French. So no doubt about it English. If you'd like to learn about derivations and cultural impacts concerning Ebonics, clickizzat thizzit. But dont worry about it. ________ FERRARI DAYTONA HISTORY Last edited by Elu Ancalime; 03-03-2011 at 10:54 PM. |

Wow! That was very interesting. Did you make that up all by yourself?

Just a little bit more precise for Romanian
Indo-European - Romance - Eastern Romance It happens to be the only national language in Eastern Europe that belongs to this family.
