Perhaps all languages are creoles
Also, what dialect of English is this?
I can barely understand any of the words. Strong accent!

No. Much of the vocabulary is indeed French, but the language of the common man is nearly completely English. French is sprinkled here and there, but it's mostly fancy pants words and legal terminology.
It's like saying Turkish is an Arabic creole, or Japanese is an English creole, because of the heavy reliance of foreign words in each.
no
I'd say it's more than just fancy words. You have to actually make an effort not to use French vocabulary.

Pewdiepie is very hot. Is he considered hot in Sweden?
No
Yes. English shares many attributes of a créole language.
-Distinction between a substrate and superstrate.
-Distinction of the aforementioned in social register.
-Loss of inflections as a result of language contact
-Inheritance (difference between a pidgin and a créole)
>Yo nigga, I be talkin to this fuckin bitch on the street n sheet and she sucked my dick homie haha I blew a FAT nut
A 100% Germanic sentence
To an extent, but languages closely related to each other are kind of like really, really heavy accents. There's more continuity.
English is more creole-esque than other major world languages.
He's from Gothenburg so you be the judge
Nigga is not an English word sorry.
English and French aren't mutually intelligible so I wouldn't consider it a creole.
It depends.
A dictionary will be 1/4 germanic but books are 3/4 Germanic.
Write a long sentence only using Germanic words
That's not how it works son. Haïtian créole mutually unintelligible with French for example.
>For most of its being, mankind did not know what things are made
of, but could only guess. With the growth of worldken, we began
to learn, and today we have a beholding of stuff and work that
watching bears out, both in the workstead and in daily life.
>The underlying kinds of stuff are the *firststuffs*, which link
together in sundry ways to give rise to the rest. Formerly we
knew of ninety-two firststuffs, from waterstuff, the lightest and
barest, to ymirstuff, the heaviest. Now we have made more, such
as aegirstuff and helstuff.
I don't even know how to "try" or "attempt" to do that.
I am going to my house today since I need to pick up my gear, that I forgot, so I can carry on with building your seat.
And I said it was 1/4 romance not 0 you imbecile.
Howdy, my name is Athelwolf. I eat pig for dinner. Yum yum for my tummy

Most words of French origin have Germanic cognates.
Is extinct and cannot be revived due to lack of sources.
Yes english are mutted, they also have the most neolithic admixture in northern europe. But they cope as being pure anglo in the same way that 40% Anglo-Americans cope about being full WASP
no
thats not what a creole is
Probably not, mostly amerimutt incels consider him a chad though he settled for a 4/10
it's not a creole language, there's a better case to be made that middle english is a creole language but even that is controversial
english has a lot of french/latin vocabulary but it's still on top of a distinctly germanic/anglo-saxon core, the grammar was simplified significantly, more so than other germanic languages, but some of the simplifications happened in other germanic languages and the simplifications you'd expect from a creole language, like the reduction of irregular verbs, just never happened in english, german has less irregular verbs than english and french significantly less for instance
what he means to say is that much of the core vocabulary of english is germanic, you can't really speak in fully germanic sentences as the anglish project has shown (it relies heavily on archaic/constructed/loan words) but in every day speech you'll find a higher proportion of germanic words than you would formal speech, newspapers tend to use far more french words for instance, much of the latin/greek vocabulary tends to be scientific/medical, etc
forget the pic every bloody time
