English is over 60% Latin and Greek roots, and dictionaries borrow 80% of entries from Latin. In the science vocabulary terms, over 90 percent are derived from Latin. English and French, as well as Spanish, are heavily derived from Latin.
Hey there! I've been reading too much of "Tower of God" recently (it's a great webtoon!), so I'll take some examples from there. Don't worry! This isn't intended as an advertisement, haha.
The main character, Baam, acquires great power by season 2. He uses his immense abilities to protect his friends, instead of using it to purposely hurt anyone with the intent of making them suffer. Of course, this is in a comic, so it isn't really realistic. In real life, power (which is usually wealth or a powerful position) can be used to help others by donating to those in need. Charity and nonprofits all need those donations! They can be used to help make the world better for many.
On the other hand, there are people who use power for bad things. For example, a powerful business tyrant may use his influence and money to get rid of rivaling competitors. This is very dirty, but his power made hurting his rivals possible. Hurting them could mean anything from sabotaging their next big breakthrough project to something as overboard as killing them.
Hope this helps! Have a great day :)
Answer:
Proverbs are popular sayings which contain advice or state a generally accepted truth. Most proverbs have their origins in oral tradition, they are generally worded in such a way as to be remembered easily and tend to change little from generation to generation, so much so that sometimes their specific meaning is no longer relevant. For instance, the proverb “penny wise, pound foolish” is a holdover from when America was a British colony and used the pound as currency. Proverbs function as “folk wisdom,” general advice about how to act and live, and because they are folk wisdom, they are often strongly reflect the cultural values and physical environment from which they arise. Proverbs are used to support arguments, to provide lessons and instruction, and to stress shared values.

Dramatic irony is a stylistic device that is most commonly used by storytellers, in plays, in the theater, and in movies. The irony is used as a plot device to create situations where the reader knows much more about the episodes and the resolutions before the chief character or characters.
Examples are:
In Merchant of Venice, the reader is aware that Lancelot is cheating his father openly; in Tempest, Prospero and the reader are aware of the presence of Gonzalo on the Island but Miranda does not.
In Romeo and Juliet, Romeo finds Juliet in deep and drugged slumber, assumes her dead, and kills himself ignorantly before Juliet wakes up, discovers her dead lover, and kills herself.
