wow how many linguists and historians please put some evidence or thesis that supports your theories all of anglo american linguists are mock by european tonglorers your whole concept is flawed i don't really know why perhaps because you have no sense for history of language why well that is certain simply because modern english is a some sort of bastard language which came to being by brutal rape of native germanic english tonge by french speaking normans thus creating english language so this historical discomfort and uneasiness of raped english makes anglo american linguists a sort of mockery this whole article is a nothing but mockery croatian language is a unique language from beginning of time from th century there are tens of thousands documents books scripts stone engravings to prove that just because someone in th century decided that this two languages should be one proves nothing and now even after years of rape croatian bears heavy scars but is still unique and separate language to prove otherwise please give some linguistic evidence to support that but you can't can you
