I have vowed to photographically document my last year of high school by taking a picture once a day in front of my school.

Day 88: Linguistics
Let me tell you about linguistics.
In theory, all languages originated from the Indo-Europeans.
When they migrated to Europe the language they spoke split into three: Proto-German, Proto-Celtic and Proto-Romance.
Proto-Romance became Latin which became French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Greek, etc.
Proto-Celtic became Irish, Gaelic and Welsh
Proto-German became German, Icelandic, Danish, Fresian, Anglo-Saxan and many others.
Anglo-Saxan or Old English became Anglish which in turn became our modern day English.
