The french in me is in revelry over the criticism of the english.

But the anglophile in me must come to their defense and say that the English language is indeed rich in vocabulary and is incredibly expressive. One must simply be aware of how it developed throughout the years and also never forget that it’s a germanic language. Despite the huge romance influence on it, it remains a germanic language. Tap into the endless sea of archaic yet still valid germanic words, and you shall find your heart’s delight in vocabulary.
