    I was thinking like… English.
    Sure, it’s got German and French and Greek and just a mess of everything, but there’s a lot of Latin in there.

      English is a Germanic language that has had significant Latin and French (which added more Latin) injected into it over the years. It has to be the most mongrel widespread language in existence, which is probably why it’s such a mess when it comes to spelling. Still, it also has a lot of flexibility and word choices because of it.
