Den vise mannen bygger sitt hus på stenar den dåraktiga mannen bygger sitt hus på san. I've just decided that I should learn #Swedish and #Norwegian. Doing so has led me to Old English as well. I know some would view this approach as biting off more than one can chew, however, I see a relationship between all four Languages, that is, #Modern-English, #Old-English, #Swedish and #Norwegian. I find references to any and all these languages, to only be a benefit and a useful reference tool. I'm not planning on any travel at all, as a matter of fact, I hate to travel. I merely want to learn these three extra languages as a means of discovery. I already love #Latin and it's numerous offshoots but I'm suddenly more focused on the #Germanic traits of the aforementioned group. I'd like to hear from speakers and lovers of the #languages just discussed. Thanks.
