It has been considered, I think the problem is that it still doesn't make sense. Even if a mix, each word should still belong to one place.
There's also the fact also that some places had multiple languages, so mixing would not be a "trick" but just what they did. Maybe a linguist could correct me there if wrong.
We still have plenty of foreign words in English today for example.
Or, a while back I went on a "boys holiday" to Brussels to tour the breweries, especially You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.. I have a habit of learning a little of the language whenever I go anywhere, just "hello", "please", "thank you" etc, I asked the guys what language they speak, the answer was "well...."
So unfortunately everyone got English.
The same naturally multi-language(ness?) can be said of Switzerland and I'd imagine as you travel back through the years, many places were a bit of a melting-pot of influences.. though I don't think someone (modern example) would say "eine" as a mix of "one" and "eins", so we would be able to see "one" and then maybe "Apfel" and think that's a bit odd, they used English "one" and German "apple".. but what we have is words that seem to make no sense wherever you look, or if we can make a word(s) the sentence makes no sense.
