They're both based on C++ (though C# is also heavily based on Java which is based on C++). D probably does take some features from C# (such as delegates), but D has taken features from a number of different languages. I doubt that anything in C# is based on anything in D though. C# is from Microsoft after all, and D is still a relatively minor language. - Jonathan M Davis
