Maciamo can't be wrong because English has more than half of its vocabulary coming from latin or french .
So it is often at least a double choice for an english word : germanic root or romance root...
Interesting , i will stay tuned !
I can't help you on those details Marie , but my mother was K1 , good stuff !

The gaulish word Caballos that gave the french Cheval , is probably based on an onomatopoeia ( onomatopée in french is far easier ! ) ,...

Yes that what they said for my sample : R1b1b2a1a , 35% french/german , 19% british , ... 99,9 % european from Doggerland , now living in Champagne .
