https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanic_substrate_hypothesisBased on the elements of Common Germanic vocabulary and syntax which do not seem to have cognates in other Indo-European languages, Proto-Germanic may have been either a creole or a contact language that subsumed a non-Indo-European substrate language, or a hybrid of two quite different Indo-European languages, mixing the centum and satem types.
Up to 30% of German words are not Indo-European.
So yes, German is unique from other European langauges, but it's not Semitic, it's remnants from the Neolithic people who lived there before the arrival of Indo Europeans (funnel beaker).
