@ayo as the native speaker of a Latin language I’ve always found the construction of English sentences quite primitive - a couple of words per sentence at most and not much punctuation. And I feel like it’s getting even simpler over time, to the point where each sentence is a subject-verb-object unit ending with a period. I feel like the more back in time you go, the more you’ll find articulate sentences with all of their nuances and punctuation (until you get to Cicero and his 2-3 lines long sentences with plenty of commas and semicolons).
