Question

In German, the modifier goes before the verb instead of after. If Jorg, a native German speaker, says “Interesting this is.” He is using ________. a. interlanguage b. improvised performance c. translation d. third culture style

Answer 1

Answer:

Interlanguage

Explanation:

Interlingua is an international auxiliary language based on the existence of a vast common vocabulary shared by languages of wide diffusion worldwide. These are words like abbreviation, abdication, abduction, abjuration, abolition, abomination, aboriginal, absolute, absorption, abstention, abstraction, acacia, etc.

A word is adopted in Interlingua as long as it is common to at least 3 of the 4 national languages chosen as the source: Portuguese / Spanish (treated as one), Italian, French and English; German and Russian may be considered.

An example of this happens in the German language, where Jorg, a native German speaker, said "Interesting that is." Since in German, the modifier goes before the verb instead of after.
