Hello all
It is very possible to have words in two different languages sound
similar and have a similar meaning and have no connection. I am
currently St'at'imc and I am a native German speaker. Every few weeks
I come across words that sound very much like a German word and some
that sound and mean roughly the same thing. The two languages have
nothing in common
Example
St'at'imc - ti7texw
German - richtig
Both meaning right or correct, both sounding almost the same
