True but the English language is especially polyglot in nature, having not just one or two roots but many. In fact, I'm not even sure if English is classified as a Latin/Romance language or a Germanic language or perhaps Celtic?

So it's much worse than normal languages. Going Tu Quoque won't help us. Wink

Oh, trust me, I'm happy to give you guys the credit for this fucked up language we speak. It's YOUR fault. Wink

Oh, incidentally, my wife has predicted that the Diana and Tom characters are going to be the two of us in our old age.

That should tell you something about both of us.
