counterparts, as I think the trend with Romantic and Germanic languages was to shed inflection over time. English used to be more complicated grammatically, but after a few hundred years of abandoning rules it became rudimentary.

I've seen Polish compared with Latin in terms of vast inflectional requirements, though I think that's something that's true of Slavic languages generally. Most Romance languages are inflected but not as heavily as their older

John yes I do, more closer British as American.

Is this a competition now? ^^
