Oh sure! The "Pure English language"...
Start with a little Celtic and Pictish, throw in some
Latin/Italian, mix thoughroughly with Germanic Saxon
and some Brethonic Norman/French, throw in smatterings
of Hindi, Yiddish, and Arabic, then add the slang and
epithets from any number of other languages.
Yup, English is totally pure! :O)
It's been said before: "We're two countries separated
by a common language..."
