Similitude is not a correct word, or at least one that I have never used or heard. Also, you don't need to use the word language as it is already understood that this is what you are referring to. (If you mean people, you would say 'French people...' or 'The French...')
So, the best ways to say it are:
French has many similarities with English.
French is (quite/very) similar to English - though this is a bit stronger in meaning than the sentence above.
