/C-01 INTRODUCTION/
German is an important European language spoken in Germany, Austria and
parts of Switzerland and other European countries.
It is like English a West Germanic language so many German words are relat-
ed to English ones:
Wasser - water
gehen - go
Vater - father
Buch - book
denken - think
Many other, non-Germanic words have been borrowed from the same sources:
Garage - garage
Biologie - biology
B}uro - bureau
Telefon - telephon
Alkohol - alcohol
And in more recent times German has borrowed many English words:
Computer
Jazz
Chip
Bridge
Pulli (pullover)
There is also a small number of German loanwords in English:
kindergarten
zeppelin
cobalt
zinc
angst
