OP Speaking of which, how did most of these words came to be derived from both languages? Was there a council for "formation of sophisticated new English words through Latin and French"?
And yes, I know that "many" English words are derived from Old/Middle English (particularly the basics), just not "most" words according to my sources (which is exemplified in the link Bingley posted)Quote:
Do you have regional accents of Hebrew in Israel yet?
We do.Quote:
Anywhere you get a language spoken in different areas which are not in close contact you're going to get different accents

Let the record state the first question is still unanswered.
