How many languages has English taken words from?

Answer»

Answer:

ENGLISH is a delectable, slow-cooked language of languages. As lexicographer Kory Stamper explains, “English has been borrowing words from other languages since its INFANCY.” As many as 350 other languages are REPRESENTED and their linguistic contributions actually MAKE up about 80% of English!
