Question

Are the frencch any relation to the irsh and scottish?

Answer 1

Only the Breton's from Brittany, as they are Celts just like us in Scotland & Ireland.  Of course Scotland & France had an Auld Alliance with one another which was never fully repealed, though the main part of it was in 1929 (I think).  I guess that's because we had a common enemy for 100's of years.

Answer 2

NO

Answer 3

Yes, if you dig deep enough.  The Gauls, the ancient inhabitants of what is now France, were P-Celts, more closely related to today's Welsh, Bretons, and Cornish than to the Scots and Irish, who are Q-Celts.  (No, I'm not kidding!)  However, Gaul was occupied for centuries by the Romans (who probably intermarried with the Gauls) and then invaded by the Franks, who were Germans.  So the Celtic element in today's French (except the Bretons) is less strong than it is in the non-English parts of the British Isles.  The Bretons, incidentally, are descended less from the ancient Gauls than from Romanized Britons who fled across the channel from the Anglo-Saxon invaders.  Hence the name Britanny for their part of France.  (Other Romanized Britons fled into the western part of Britain and became the Welsh.)

Answer 4

Yes. And and also the Welsh, and the Britons. They're all Celts.
