And who might these ancestors be?[/quote]
This is L_D. I was just being facetious in that post, my "b".

There is a bit of the language of those ancestors in my signature. I'm turning this into a puzzle to be solved. haha

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say.... The Irish?

I believe in his acknowledgments in [i]Angela's Ashes[/i], Frank McCourt thanks the English for stuffing their language down the throats of the Irish "so that we could vomit it back up in glorious colors" or something similar...

Interlingua!

[i]Nostre Patre, qui es in le celos,
que tu nomine sia sanctificate;
que tu regno veni;
que tu voluntate sia facite
super le terra como etiam in le celo.
Da nos hodie nostre pan quotidian,
e pardona a nos nostre debitas
como nos pardona a nostre debitores,
e non duce nos in tentation,
sed libera nos del mal.
[/i]


Don't laugh, I knew people in University who were mad about that stuff.

A strange blend of Latin, French, Italian Spanish and Portuguese?

L_D, I share your sentiments about English except when I think of Chesterton and Shakespeare, then I calm down and realize English has a place and a purpose. Certain things have to be said in English, like when you curse the Tudor Monarchs for nearly destroying our ancestral tongue you gotta do it in English so they can understand you from their special little spot in hell.

I like to pray the rosary or parts of the rosary in Latin, I typically attend the Tridentine mass now. And we have Benediction in Latin at almost all circumstances.

It's a Constructed Language (developed to allow a huge swathe of people to learn a single secondary language, not too different from their primary language, in order to facillitate communication), using the Romance grammar and the vocab of a set of control languages ( English, French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, with German and Russian as secondary references). Essentially, it's set up so that speakers of any of the Romance languages, as well as English, will be able to pick it up very quickly.

Volkspraak is the Germanic-derived counterpart (still a work in progress).

In a Canadian dialect?? :D: :D:

Seriously, I can pray the [i]Salve Regina[/i] in Latin but struggle with it in English.
