German English Words: A Popular Dictionary of German Loanwords in English

Welcome to humanlanguages.com, a site by Robb Knapp. Robb has had contact with many languages. As an American his mother tongue is (American) English. He learned a lot of Latin and a little French and German at school. While in the Peace Corps he spoke Swahili fluently. During a stay in Kuwait (before the first Gulf war) he got to know a little Arabic. Now he lives in Austria and speaks (Austrian) German fluently. Due to his ancestry he wants to learn Finnish.

The graphic above consists of the word "net" in 7 languages: "net" (English), "Netz" (German), "réseau" (French), "rete" (Latin & Italian), "verkko" (Finnish), and "wavu" (Swahili).
