Do you English people have it the same when you, for example, read French or German?

If you know about historical liguistics we can point out cognates, but the average English speak is too stupid.

It seem we can't understand eachother, my Latin sucks. I only know a lot of Latin roots, I'm terrible with the verb congujations. :(

I'm actually surprised how similar Icelandic is. I think it'll be my next target after Romanian, Russian, and Mandarin

SAME! Except like rootbeer instead of tequila, and dresses instead of suits. But NACHOS and love are good om nom nom, especially together. Also I want to snap my fingers and have this work done.

Reading? No, listen with Germanic languages? Dutch and Icelandic I can get a bit out of (dutch I can sort of understand everything) But no, not really

I can't understand spoke Dutch for beans, German is easier for me (German is of course my family's ancestral language, so I have a bias for it). Written Dutch is much better for me.

Indeed it is. I'm working on something myself, but I'm still working on the concept.

Part of it I intend to take place in a city like Venice, only built near the edge of a waterfall and powered by some sort of steampunk-ish hydroelectric contraption.
