The kaleidoscope that is the English language isn’t just made up of words that come from Old English, Greek, Latin, and French. Hundreds of words we use come from Arabic sources, and hundreds more are from Native American languages. Everyday phrases and terms also come from Chinese, Japanese, Yiddish, German, Bantu, and so many more.
