" "French" words do not exist at all, French vocabulary and grammar is mostly of Latin, Germanic and Greek origin. "
Germanic origin ? over 10 000 usual french words, 400 are of Germanic origins - that is to say about 4%... Hard to tell that germanic represent one of the foundations of the french vocabulary...

Germanic elements DO form an important base in French: both words and constructions.
For instance, common Germanic French words: riche, regarder, garage, baggage, blesser, garcon (boy/waiter), joli, boulevard, attacher, debut, marcher, etiqette, tricoter, marsouin, marais, frais, blanc, bleu, brun, gris, fauteuil, macon (mason), bouquin, jardin, savon, bord, nord, sud, est, ouest, engager, choisir, etc.
Contructions such as the passe compose in French are Germanic (have verb + past participle)
and phonemes:
"ai" (old French dipthong for Latin long 'a')
"oi" (old/Middle French for 'ei')
etc are alterations due to the Germanic speech patterns of the Frankish ruling class

"je speede un max sur mon scooter pour faire du shopping le weekend "
isn't it a proof ? French is almost half Germanic... it sounds similar to English... no ?
On the other hand English is 70% latin ! English is more Romance than French, and culturally and ethnitically the French are descendants of the Germans... and are their neighbours and economic partners. French are Germanic of course, but they would like to be latin...

English is 70% Latin?? MAybe the number of terms including scientific and rarely used
The French themselves acknowledge descent from Latin, Germanic & Celtic.
French language is really germanicised Latin, which is why it is so unique among its romance brethren.

BUAHAHAH AHAHAH!!!
At least that is the proof you have to stop with spirits!!!!
Io speedo un max sul mio scooter per fare dello shopping il weekend
VOILA! And italian is almost half Germanic too!!!!
And also spanish, and Portoguese, and greek... so simple: take a bunch of English words common in EVERY language and change articles and conjuntions...What a proof!
I do not want to point out also that scooter, shopping and weeken are rarely udsed in French due to the allergy of French for every english word.
English is more Romance than French

and culturally and ethnitically the French are descendants of the Germans...
WHATTT?????!!!!!

I missed one element which cannot be removed which is ADJECTIVE BEFORE NOUN--even on non-german words (eg. "modern form"; "equivalent Roman type")
Spyo : « Here you go, I ↔ all the ↔ words and ↔. Makes a lot of ↔ now. THIS IS WHY ENGLISH IS ↔. »
