Don't know. It's really annoying.

That isn't how you determine which language family a language belongs to.
English is a Germanic language because of how it structures its dialogue, not because of its vocabulary.

Aren't most of the "core" words in English of Germanic origin anyway?

Yes, the ones you actually use in daily life are mostly Germanic in origin. Where I am from we have more than normal due to heavy Norse settlement anyway.

Totally distorted by the autistic neologism of English in the modern era.

So? Are germanics meant to be better than Anglos? Because they have prettier eyes, or something?
Jose Collins
Obviously most of our words come from latin. But some words also have a germanic origin, mostly thanks to the vikings. For example "heaume" which is similar to helmet, most of these words coming from the vikings are related to the navy, and ships.
About 100 words come from gaulish, mostly related to the nature, "If" (a tree) or "Alose" (a fish), "chêne" as well.
That's all I know, a graph would be interesting.
