T,

Snipsa,

I actually thought it was Afrikaans, until you mentioned it. I don't speak Dutch, so while I can tell it's obviously some kind of dialect or variation on the language (all those double vowels), I'm not sure which.

Dutch is famous for its double vowels

Obviously a Germanic language, but I can't tell which one. They all look alike (except for English).

Okay, so now that it has been said, what language does this *remind* you of, or look like to you at first glance, IG aside?
Ben   Thursday, May 26, 2005, 17:24 GMT
Dutch, most definitely.
vincent   Thursday, May 26, 2005, 17:31 GMT
it's frison, i'm certain
you say "frysk" in dutch for "frison", don't you?
vincent   Thursday, May 26, 2005, 17:33 GMT
...or some dialect of Plattdeutsch (from Schleswig-Holstein... anyway from northern Germany) but... no. I better bet for frison.
Sander   Thursday, May 26, 2005, 17:41 GMT
No,vincent we say 'fries' and its been said,its *IG (from travis)

*InterGermania)
Travis   Thursday, May 26, 2005, 17:56 GMT
It's name in itself though is tviskengermaansk, not Intergermania, for the record.

And yes, we all know it is IG by now, but I'd just like to see what others think it most closely resembles, as "real" languages go.

Travis : ja, ich bin wirklich ein Faulpelz mit meine <B> anstatt rein Deutscher <ß>...

Sander : you speak too much and too fast and too early. Suspense, man !
