The most widely spoken languages in the world
#6
You can't just "merge" two languages together. Languages don't work like that. Once you do that, neither language would be the same language any more.

Modern English is largely Germanic-Swedish/Norwegian with French loanwords. But English speakers cannot understand Norwegian, Swedish, or French without extensive study. Old English died out hundreds of years ago and we cannot understand it today. (There are people who can, of course, but the average Modern English speaker cannot do so without extensive study.) I wouldn't consider it "saved" any more than I'd consider a Ford F150 to be the same as a wrecked Chevy Silverado simply because I transferred the radio and air freshener from the Chevy to the Ford.
