[edit] Chart should be simplified
The chart is too complicated. I suggest:
- Omitting the personal pronouns for all languages except English. Conjugation has to do with changes in the verb; the pronouns only detract from it;
- Omitting formal conjugations. They just repeat others that already appear in the standard conjugation paradigm.

[edit] Fundamental Question
Is it correct to say that only verbs can conjugate? For example, what about Japanese adjectives?

[edit] This page is a bit incorrect.
I am not a scholar, but I do know that english is largly derived from the Saxon, Anglo, and Briton languages with lesser latin and german influnences/infusion. I cannot see how english falls under the a True germanic language like Swedish, Dutch, and Deutsch. It has about as much in common with German as it does latin. Read or have someone who can speak it read a few pages from a saxon or anglo text and it will sound stikingly familier to the ear of a naitive tongue english speaker. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.207.206.69 (talk) 11:00, 12 January 2007 (UTC).
