That’s not unique to the French language though. English a bit of borrowed from everywhere. Germanic, French, Latin… even Indian languages have borrowed words here.
Yeah, what I meant was more like the pronunciation, especially some English accents have more to do with French than with Scottish or Irish
As an Italian, I have no trouble understanding Spanish and reading French and Latin words in English. But listening to French and English accents is on another world to me 😅
Fr though. No offense, i speak both french and english almost perfectly, a good chunk of the words comes directly from old french. And they usually have a proper anglosaxon equivalent with the roots in common from dutch or breton (my family’s from britany)
Saying english vocabulary comes from french is exagerated but there’s some truth to it
The English imitate the French language a lot, so I’d say they are worst for keeping away from France

English has more words than french because it has all the french words + their own English words
