French and Italian. Clearly related, and yet still morphologically and 
phonetically different enough to sound very distinct.

Subject: [b-hebrew] Similar to......

Dear b-hebrew listers,

I need to know some answer to this question:

The relation between the biblical Hebrew and the biblical Aramaic.... what
is it like, compared with today languages?

Is it similar to the relation, say, between English and German?
Is it similar to the relation between Spanish and Portuguese?
Is it similar to the relation between French and Italian?
Is there a better comparison than these?

What do you think?
