Swedish after the liberation from the Danes and Norwegian in the 19th
century seem to me perfect examples languages "flowing backwards".

Excuse me, but what are you talking about here? Sweden's "liberation from the Danes
and Norwegian in the 19th century"? This doesn't fit into any of the history I remember
from school. We have not been under Danish rule since the Kalmar Union was broken
in 1521.
