What fascinated me about English was what I later recognized as its hybrid etymoogy: blunt Anglo-Saxon concreteness, sleek Norman French urbanity, and polysyllabic Greco-Roman abstraction.

The dazzling multiplicity of sounds and word choices in English makes it brilliantly suited to be a language of poetry..
