German had a significant influence on the English language when it developed during the Anglo-Saxon era; Saxony being an area in Southern Germany. Many similarities can still be found, just look at words like mouse (Maus in German) or house (Haus). So learning German might not be as hard as you think.

Long German words
German words are often strung together making very long words; one of the longest is Donaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän (captain working for a company running steamships on the river Danube). As Mark Twain once put it, some German words can be so long they have a perspective.
