Interesting how many of them start with a <k>, which I’m assuming is a stop, maybe velar? Like, velar stop + mid/low back vowel. I don’t do much etymology or cross-language linguistics, but I’m guessing those are . . . probably Slavic, but I see Dutch there too and maybe Spanish. The ones starting with vowels (aside from French) are I guess from Nordic countries? I think I was expecting (to identify) more romance languages. Neat!
