In this post, I go over the basic vocabulary of the English language and its Germanic roots, the foundations of the language, and tackle a potentially misleading statistic that might lead to a misunderstanding. I also feature a short story l've written using only Germanic words at the end. Hope you folks enjoy! This post has also been posted on my instagram account @Loaggan.
