Simpler is probably an inappropriate adjective. Both have complex grammars in different ways.

German: the problem for English speaker is in the noun/adj part of the language. German identifies each noun phrase according to its 'role' in the sentence (Subj., I.O, D.O. object of preposition). These distinctions carry little meaning to English speakers and so are hard to learn. Related to this is word order. It is difficult for an English speaker to form or understand a sentence where any verb other than the conjugated form is as the end of the clause. There are other problems, but identifying noun phrases as subject or direct object is generally taught in level one, and therefore gives people the impression that German is very complex.

French; I find the verb system more complex than in English. There are three/four regular conjugations and many more irregular conjugations which are regularly used. When you get to the past tense, there are two in common use and one used only in literary texts. English speakers find distinguishing between a single event in the past and a continuous event in the past difficult, and, since verb endings carry no meaning for them, they find memorizing the various verbs very tedious and difficult. The further you get into French, the more difficult the verbs become.

Yes, all of the ones are caucasian (if you're speaking approximately local born ones, of direction.) All Europeans descend from an insignificant nine exclusive ladies, or even much less guys,so all European nations have near similarities in phrases of genetics. Certain mutations and markers in dna exhibit which companies moved wherein in old instances . For example the Irish & the basques of Spain have primarily top quantities of y-dna R1b;someplace in time they percentage ordinary ancestry. So do the British adding the English--they're much more likely to have descended from an old hunter or Stonehenge builder than an Anglo-saxon or viking. Btw, such a lot center and close japanese humans,as good as north Africans and a few Infians are viewed caucasian too. This is going through cranium form and dna now not through epidermis color.
