There is footage circulating the internet of a captive Ukrainian soldier being beheaded by a Russian fighter.
It needs to be authenticated, but if true it's absolutely sickening.
Whoever did this is a fucking animal ...

Ridiculous the way Roy Devans blames his wife for being influenced by 'monogamous societal norms', as if that's a bad thing.
Yes, most people are monogamous. There's nothing wrong with this whatsoever.
What is important here is honesty. Roy Devans promised his wife he'd be faithful to her when he married her. He has broken that promise.
If people are looking for relationships and declare at the outset that they're looking for open relationships, then ok.
But Roy Devans didn't do that.

Is English a hybrid language?
by LoveUniHateExams inthe short answer is no, it is not.. i have heard one or two proposals that it is, including from langfocus, a usually excellent youtube channel.. but no, english is actually a germanic language which has borrowed many words from other languages.
here are several reasons why english is germanic at its core .... 1. verb forms.
i play - ich spiele.

Although, thinking about it, there is a construction that French uses in place of a continuous tense:
Je suis en train de marcher - I am in the process of walking.

There is no present continuous tense in French.
Je marche - I walk/am walking.
Ditto the past continuous.

Ok, I take your point about gerunds.
But, it's simply a fact that Old English (the language spoke in England before the Norman Conquest) use to have -s ending plurals.
There were two types of plural endings in Old English.
daeg - dagas (day)
nama - naman (name)
Sorry, this is just a fact. The influence of French, especially from 1066 onward, may explain why the -s plural ending became more popular than the -n ending, but it's just a fact that English always had -s plural endings for some nouns.

The -s ending for plural nouns is actually from Old English, in other words English has always had that.
daeg - day
dagas - days
As for the present/past continuous (I am/was going), well, French doesn't have that.

@Scully - you're right English uses to do as an auxiliary verb in a way that most languages don't.
However, French uses est-ce que (literally 'is it that') in exactly the same way, to form questions.
E.g. Est-ce que tu as des freres ou des soeurs? - do you have any brothers or sisters?
It's possible, perhaps even likely, that English was influenced by French in this way.
