This paper aims to show that English is an Arabic dialect and so are German, French, Latin,
Greek, Sanskrit, and all Indo-European languages by examining the above title sentence from a
radical linguistic (or lexical root) theory perspective. The data comprises all the words and/or
lexical and grammatical morphemes of Free good lovely comely beautiful merry girls marry
noble villains in engagement and wedding rings ceremoniously with the underlined words
being the core of the sentence. The results indicate without a single shred of doubt that all such
words have true Arabic cognates with the same or similar forms and meanings, whose
differences are due to natural and plausible causes and different routes of linguistic change,
especially lexical, semantic, or morphological shift. Therefore, the results support the adequacy
of the radical linguistic theory according to which, unlike the Family Tree Model or
Comparative Method, Arabic, English, German, French, Latin, Greek, and Sanskrit not only
belong to the same language family, renamed Eurabian or Urban family, but also are dialects of
the same language, with Arabic being their origin all because only it shares the whole cognates
with them all and because it has a huge phonetic, morphological, grammatical, and lexical
repertoire and variety. On a more general level, they also entail that there is a radical language
from which all human languages stemmed and which has been preserved almost intact in Arabic,
thus being the most conservative and productive language.
