Wow, thanks Melusine - for both the kind words and the info. Didn't know about Yiddish and Gothic for example.
I think you'll find all European Languages except Basque (which Ertai speaks BTW) originated from the said IndoEuropean. Georgian is also a bit different from memory.
Cool post Mel, thanks.
