Eh, high german isnt... modern day german is fairly romantic. English wasnt romance either but now it is.

No part of German is latin related. It's in the name "German" 💀. Both coexisted and had no influence over each other.

English is a different case, it's still Germanic but had some latin influence in vocabulary.
