Why does English use so many words from so many languages?

English

English has other words from other languages because it comes from Latin. Latin is a dead language but still lives on in most European languages today, which is what most people speak from Colonization, and their native words also mixed in with Europeans, like how Avacado is actually from the First Nation language Nahuatl from Mexico. The word Barbecue is also from South America (Arawakan), and how the phrase "mumbo jumbo" comes from the west African god Maamajomboo.

Hope this helps. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great Valentines Day and Black History Month! :-)

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

I am currently getting my degree in Ethics and Moral Philosophy to become a sex therapist. I have quite a few friends who are getting degrees in psychology and law.

Right now law is a little bit of a difficult field to get a job in. There are a lot of people with law degrees trying to get jobs in law, whatever they may be. Obviously, this should not put you off of the idea of a career in law but something that you should look out for.

Psychology is a very safe bet as you can get many different jobs in many different fields. I have only taken a few psychology classes but they were all very engaging and interesting.

If you want to look at other fields I recommend something in English or Biology as they are very universal.

Hope this helps :)

An omission in a text is correctly punctuated using a _______.
iren [92.7K]
An omission in a text is correctly punctuated using a dash. The answer is option B. In correcting, the long dash should be used. The punctuation dash in rather more formal, neat and presentable so the reader can still distinguish what it is omitted.
