'''English''' in the Lõis timeline is an [[Azalic]] language: it is an Indo-European language with pretty much exactly the same vocabulary and grammar as our English, but with a very different (in particular not descending from Proto-Germanic) history and orthography. (Also missing are some loans from other Germanic languages, such as ''schadenfreude''.)
