Posted by one of my acquaintances that claims to be an ANCAP but also thinks Fucker Carlson has good ideas, and that trans people and poor people are ruining America. Also worships Elon. I hate these people.

    Eh, depends on definition of history

    English was about 500 AD, which is most of recorded history, but on human existence.

    But it evolved from proto Germanic like most North Western European languages, so it’s hard to draw clear line when it became English

        I mean, I explicitly used “history” instead of “existence” for that precise reason…

        I’m sorry that still wasn’t clear enough for you from the initial comment. But at least we finally got there.

          Well, I’m sorry my scope for history included greater or less years than your preferred scope, I hope this doesn’t make you think fewer of my point.
