During the French occupation of England in the 11th century and onward, the language changed dramatically and its where English got its irregularity and sentence structure, as well as a lot of its spelling. I'd have to agree that English is quite the outlier, not really anything like German... | ||

Not doubting the man's appeal, but it was reported a while back that they were close to signing Symbol before negotiations seemingly broke down. EDIT: Not sure of the timeframe, so I adjusted the wording accordingly. | ||

They used to be one of the richest team if you exclude EG/Alliance, things are a worse right now with their streaming revenue shrinking and the fact that less money is entering the SC2 scene compared to the last 2 years. | ||

The thing is that Millenium doesn't want a korean player that lives in Korea. They want him to be in Europe, either at the Millenium House or elsewhere (ForGG lives in Germany for example). There are multiple reasons for this : - being closer to the european events (WCS, DreamHack, ASUS ROG) to reduce the costs, - getting content for the Millenium TV without the problems encountered with cross server, - having a player in Europe shows that he's very concerned about his team and that he's not a mercenary. | ||

But it's the same for all the other teams, so it doesn't really change their position. | ||

I would say spanish, french and italian is quite similar, dunno about portuguese.. i had a brazilian friend who said its not hard for him to learn spanish in contrast to german. Also English, German and dutch is quite similar too. I mean lots of dutch people speak german fluently after a year in Germany. (they often have some basic knowledge from school, so its not hard to fill in the blanks from there) Some German accents dont sound too different to dutch. I dont know much about nordish languages, some words are similar and when you read it you can kinda get the gist of it as a german speaker but understanding and speaking would take some work i guess. I love to bash on americans but in this case i would have to agree. I mean the languages arent the same by any means but they're still very close. | ||
