I think my question was really whether Jameld, being a West Germanic tongue spoken in Northern Alsace by a people descended from migrated Frisians, would have any interaction with any of the peoples known to inhabit the Brithenig universe. The Jameld version of reality is largely the same as the one we have to put up with, except that at some point currently undefined in the 8th or 9th C a small group of Frisian-speakers left Frisia and roamed about a bit for a century or so, eventually settling around the River Sauer in Alsace. No one else was affected. Are the inhabitants and languages of France, Germany and Benelux basically the same *there* as here?
