Thanks Petit
I actually don't believe they're isolates, I think they should be grouped together hehe. I dont know a lot about Korean, but my syntax teacher was Korean and we looked at the sentence structure a bit and it had so many similarities. Korean also has a bunch of borrowed words from Japanese, and with their closeness, I'm sure Japanese has exposure in Japan, with dramas and tv and stuff... Maybe I should get my masters in linguistics proving they're part of the same language group!!
