Openness of vocabulary
Openness of vocabulary implies both free
admission of words from other languages
and the ready creation of compounds and
derivatives.
English adopts (without change) or
adapts (with slight change) any word
really needed to name some new object
or to denote some new process. Like
French, Spanish, and Russian, English
frequently forms scientific terms from
Classical Greek word elements.
