    English makes perfect sense—it’s all the other languages we keep stealing words from who can’t agree on a common spelling system.

      As a Norwegian, I am fully aware that my ancestors helped created the English language by first invading the welsh isles, and then, three generations after invading the Francs, we invaded the isles again with romance speaking nobility for generations.

      English is a Nordic made Francish/Welsh/Germanic creole that was made popular by the still Norwegian blooded crown.
