Best Answer

The Dutch language is younger than the English language.

However we must not forget that the English language we know nowadays is not comparable to the old, ancient English those days. This is the same as with Dutch.

Early modern English language began its rise after the eleventh century (French, Norwegian influences).

Early Dutch, experts have recognized in the Middle Ages around the 14th century.
