Sarah,
That is funny. You have a point in showing how the evolution can
happen differently. Finnish though is not Indo-European while
Norwegian is. Osmosis might have happened. And in the instance you
mentioned, is funny.
Norwegian: Hey you.
Finns: Me?
Finns: No, Me, its We.
> I've learnt enough over the years to know that language is
fascinating and can easily mislead the uninitiated! For example
today I learnt that "me" in Finnish is "we" in English and in some
Norwegian dialects "me" can also be used for "we". So the innocent
observer might easily conclude that there must be some connection
between the two - but no! The two are totally unrelated!
