Two questions

You started a section in the Talk page for a recent Featured Article about a song with a puzzling title, and I joined that conversation, wherein I said that the title needed to be explained. There I saw your most unusual appellation. Would you please translate your username into English and share that translation here? I have read (I believe it was in A Mouthful of Air by Anthony Burgess) that Frisian is the most Englishlike of all other world languages. Would you say that Frisian closely resembles English? —catsmoke ^talk 09:00, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

@Catsmoke: Originally yes, Frisian was the language most closely related to English. (We're talking about the Middle Ages now: Old English and Old Frisian.) But through the centuries that has changed. Before I go any further I will need to explain that there are 3 Frisian languages, West Frisian in the Netherlands, and North Frisian and Saterland Frisian in Germany. These languages are not mutually comprehensible and all three of them have their own orthography and their own Wikipedia (fy, frr, and stq respectively). As I don't speak North Frisian and Saterland Frisian, I can only speak for West Frisian, which is my native tongue. Today, I would say West Frisian resembles Dutch more than English, which is a consequence of centuries of influence of Dutch, because that is a much more dominant language than West Frisian.

For instance, sentence structure in West Frisian is, for the most part, similar to Dutch, not to English. The English sentence "I couldn see nothing, because it was much too dark" in West Frisian would be: "Ik koe neat sjen, om't it fierstente tsjuster wie" and in Dutch: "Ik kon niets zien, omdat het veel te donker was". Both translate literally to: "I could nothing see, because it much to dark was". That is not to say that there are not still similarities with English, especially in the lexicon. Much cited examples include: tsiis/cheese (Dutch: kaas), swiet/sweet (Dutch: zoet), dei/day (Dutch: dag), tegearre/together (Dutch: samen), kaai/key (Dutch: sleutel) and skiep/sheep also in plural (Dutch: schaap, plural schapen).

Also, of course, English has had its own foreign influences, from Danish and French, and has moved away from Frisian in a completely different direction. For instance, where English has a word like "tree", which comes from Danish or Norwegian, Frisian has beam, similar to the same word in other West Germanic languages (Dutch: boom, German: Baum, etc.).

As for my username, Ieneach fan 'e Esk is an Odin reference; it means "One-eye of (or from) the Ash (tree)". Ieneach fan 'e Esk (talk) 14:30, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
