Especially this one, where you discover that maybe 60% of English words are either
French or Latin, and 25% only Germanic...

Note that especially comes from Latin modified in French as "especial",
which we pronounce nowadays: "spécial" (special).

English loves to “borrow” the same word multiple times.
English is a miser (in the ‘Scrooge’ sense), maybe because Ænglisc had a small
vocabulary.
