is the English a language romano i do this question because too mach words in English are similar to Spanish?

Answer 1

Si Hablas espanol:

No, la lengua de ingles en realidad es germanico, pero son similares muchas palabras porque una parte de ingles se integro de Romance. es la misma situacion qu'el de frances ser tan similar en algunas partes a aleman, siendo frances una lengua romantico.

English Translation:

No, English is a Germanic Language but many parts of it is similar to Spanich because parts of the english language are derived from Latin and the Romance Languages. It's the same situation as French having similarities to German even though french is a latin language.

Answer 2

Like the question -like the answers....

The English Language MAY be ROMAN-T-IC, but certainly IS NOT a ROMAN-IC language.

English and Spanish (together) do not originate from Latin. Only Spanish originates from Latin whereas English IS a Germanic language.

P.S.

Be carefull when using a speller-checker, it's a machine, you know, not a man - it doesn't have a clue what are you writting about, ok!!

English IS NOT Romano (or Romany) either, because the language of contemporary Gypsies or Romano is an Indo-Iranian language.

The similarity of great number of English words to Spanish ones is due to cultural interchange (such as wars, and other cultural aspects..) and mostly to common French (Latin i.e. Romanic) cultural heretage.

Answer 3

The language that is most closely related to English is Frisian (see sources section below). However, I don't know if it actually shares more words with English than other languages. (I don't speak Frisian, and I have never even heard it spoken.) The problem is that English borrowed many words from many other languages, especially Latin and French. Since French is a language that grew out of Latin, there are many words that French and English have in common, even though they are *not* closely related (French is a Romance language, English is Germanic, but both Germanic and Romance are sub-groups of Indo-European). Another question is what do you mean by "words similar to English"? For instance, the English word "entree" is of French origin, but in French, it is pronounced differently...and it means something different, too. In English, it is a main dish; in French, an appetizer. The simple answer is...there probably isn't a simple answer.

Answer 4

English was influenced by French a great deal and the academic and legal language was Latin for a very long time. Since Spanish is also related to Latin, you are bound to find a lot of similar words.

Answer 5

No English is not a romantic language. The similar words (called cognates) are because English, Spanish, and many other languages originated from Latin.

Also, English stole some words from the Romantic languages (Italian, French, Spanish), but did not steal grammar.

The romantic languages, you might have noticed, share masculine/feminine nouns and adjectives and grammatical constructions different than English.

Answer 6

Latin you mean. Nope.
Remember modern English is a fusion between Old English from the Saxons and French from the Normands

Answer 7

♠ when ancient Romans met ancient Americans in England the Romans picked this beautiful language of Americans and spread it throughout the whole Empire; Spanish of nowadays is a vulgar version of Portuguese tongue;

Answer 8

If I understand your question correctly, you are asking why so many words in English are similar to the ones in Spanish? That is because both languages originated and evolved from Latin.

Answer 9

no english is not a romance language....it belongs to the germanic group of languages

Answer 10

I have no clue what you just said.
