Actually, if you go through an etymological dictionary and count the
inheritance of English words, various flavors of Frisian are the
leader by a fairly wide margin. French is right up there too. But I
agree that the “bastard child” explanation, naming only two languages,
is unduly limiting.
OK. Proto Frisian...

Hello Larry, just got the June issue of Better Photography magazine,
where there is an excellent review of the Olympus OM-D. The PLUS
points are: quick AF, good image quality from a small 17.3 x 13 mm

MINUS point are: small buttons, price. Final Ratings are:
