    Yeah, what I meant was more like the pronunciation, especially some English accents have more to do with French than with Scottish or Irish

    As an Italian, I have no trouble understanding Spanish and reading French and Latin words in English. But listening to French and English accents is on another world to me 😅

      Well, more to do with Saxony tbh, which was a region of France that some Nordic Vikings invaded and then lived in so long that they became a bit French, and the locals becoming a little bit Nordic
