Modern scholars estimate the percentage of borrowed words in the English
vocabulary at 65-70 per cent which is exceptionally high figure. This anomaly is
explained by the country’s eventful history and by its many international contacts.
On a straight vocabulary count, considering the high percentage of borrowed words,
one would have to classify English as a language of international origin or, at least, a
Romance one (as French and Latin words prevail). but here another factor comes into
play, the relative frequency of occurrence of words, and it is under the heading that the
native Anglo-Saxon heritage comes into its own. The native element comprises a large
number of high-frequency words like the articles, prepositions, pronouns, conjunctions,


auxiliaries and, also, words denoting everyday objects and ideas (house, water, go,
come, eat, good, bad, etc).
Furthermore, the grammatical structure is essentially Germanic having remained
unaffected by foreign influence.
The first column consists of three groups, only third being dated. As to the Indo-
European and Germanic groups, they are so old that they cannot be dated. It was
mentioned that the tribal languages of the Angles, the Saxons, the Jutes, by the time of
their migration, contained only words of Indo-European and Germanic roots plus a
certain number of the earliest Latin borrowings
