Noboru said: goathead said: Luxembourgish is basically Middle Central German and Central German is much closer to High German than to Low German. And compared to languages like French or English, older stages of the language ("Middle") have remained quite comprehensible for "Modern" ( or "New") speakers. Also I understand enough Luxembourgish to know what's going on (as it's close to German) You could say that, but Luxembourgish is also taking a lot from French and Dutch, so sometimes it's tricky to understand if you don't know these languages. |
| fluent in english, know lots of german but not quite fluent |
| English is the only one I’m fluent in, but I understand quite a bit of French and can hold a conversation in it. I also know some Japanese from my family, but I’m a lot better at writing it than speaking it. |

And as for Dutch, it's used to be seen as a form of Low German and centuries ago, Middle Dutch and Middle Low German were much closer than the modern variants. Old Dutch is basically Old Low Franconian. |
