They're both Germanic-based and both use the Roman alphabet. We've borrowed words from each other. 26 percent of all English words of are French origin, actually, like 'achieve' and 'necessary' and all those words you could never spell in school. I'm serious. Look for a word you had trouble spelling, it's gonna be here (link)

And France took 'weekend', 'rockstar', 'jeans', all that stuff (but oddly not 'computer/ordinateur').

Which is older English or German?

The German language is older than English. The English language is developed from Latin, Greek, Italian, German, French, Spanish and many more. The English language is relatively new compared to other languages. The reason for this is because we were invaded by lots of people over the centuries, and all languages are at least loosely linked, (the Asian languages are linked together, but not linked to European languages), so while England may not have been invaded by some countries, it still has elements of their language in English.
