Rosbjerg Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 One of those funny languages is unique (I think it's Icelandic), all the others have commonality, and eventually go back to sanscrit (the Indo-European language group) together with latin (and therefore the romantic languages French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, English, etc). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's a funny little family yes .. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indo-European_languages and Icelandic is a little strange in this sense, since it mostly very old Danish and some Norweign .. it's closer to what is called Old Norse that any of the scandinavian languages today! but it's not a unique language in any other sense!

metadigital Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Not many US citizens know that the world has that many places. I saw an episode of Sesame Street a while back with a political outline of China and superimposed it on a map of the US (for a size comparison) -- didn't really tell the kiddies where it was, though.
