Captain Jack Sparrow: im not german
Captain Jack Sparrow: me nos peak germanian

He added me to xfire cus of cSro..

There was a language before Dutch and German

They're both 'dialects' from the same language called 'Diets'

But they look totally different

Dutch:
"Ik ben TwelveEleven, ik ben 17 jaar oud en een jonge"
German:
"Ich bin TwelveEleven, ich bin 17 jahre alt und ein Jung"
