[40k] If we were to apply our current linguistic knowledge, how would Imperial Gothic be classified? What modern languages is it most closely related to?

Imperial Gothic is split into two forms, low and high. High Gothic is an archaic language that developed from several European and Pacific languages mixed together pre age of strife. By now it's mainly ceremonial and the average Imperial doesn't speak a lick of it. Its fills a similar function to how Latin was in medieval Europe. Low Gothic is actually a collection of dialects (not all mutually intelligible) that are derived from High Gothic although they've grown to be almost unrecognizable compared to High Gothic.
