It's not. It's derived from Germanic languages.
The romance languages (Portuguese, Spanish, Catalan, French, Italian, Romanian, Friulian, etc.) are derived from Latin, but not English.
English has words derived from Latin, but only because English speakers have a great habit of borrowing words from other languages.

I came up with 'casa da fazenda' but I'm not sure if people use that. 'Barraca' might be ok for shack. Any ideas? Also, it needs to be Brazilian Portuguese. Thanks!

If english is your primary language, feel free to answer with a language you enjoy speaking, or the language your ancestors spoke. For example, I'm part German, so my answers are:

frieden, liebe, freude

Hi. Let me introduce myself. I am from south korea and 26 years old and I am a male.
I wonder if there are people who want to know Korean culture or Korean
language or something else. I can speak English, not that fluenlty though.
And I am practicing Japanese hard. I like reading a book and watching
an animation. I belive in God, but not that seriously.

Can someone translate this, thanks--- I've tried the translator online, and i know what it kinda means, but I don't really have a good meaning of it... anyhow, here it is: Ich habe gelernt, dass du niemanden dazu bringen kannst, dich zu lieben. Alles, was du tun kannst ist jemand zu sein, den man lieben kann.

In English we say "ow!" or "ouch!" (and maybe a few other words) when we get hurt. What do they say in other langauges for that type of interjection?

In many languages the number one is an exception called 'singular'.
Why did the difference between singular and plural to existence.
It can be missed. One form is enough. You can understand three car without any problem.

I recently asked about the definitions of words to try and find out the limits of current language use. At the macro level, we seem to communicate ok. But at the micro level, where the details do matter, I dont think we do so good. The point of this and my earlier question is to explore if our languages are as limited as they seem. If so, what does this mean for the future of human communication?
