Languages in English

English has borrowed many words from many different languages.

Do you know which ones are English and which are not? How about if the borrowed words have the same meaning in English as in their original languages?

I made an ebook collection of articles from Engoo.com/app/daily-news on topics like books, British vs. American English, and food. Now, the latest collection is on the languages used in English.

Since the very beginning, speakers of other languages have contributed to the English language. In business, culture, family, friends, and food, one sees the global contribution to English.

Look at the world. There are about 1.5 billion people who speak English today — and only about 25% are native English speakers!

This means English is for the 75% non-native speakers: English is for you.

Your cultures and languages helped make English what it is today. Let's learn how your languages and cultures contributed to English.

I will always say, "English is crazy," and English has frustrating grammar and pronunciation rules. And yet, English is very forgiving and creative. English learns and adapts.

English is truly a global language.
