Modern German and French get their words from the same root languages as English. English does not get the general germanic/dutch style from German, it gets the style from the language that German came from. Likewise for the deeper relationship between English and French.

The Japanese, Chinese (not a language), Indian (not a language) words you're talking about must be load words, which aren't really English words. Obviously there are German and French loan words in English as well, but English is a language in its own right and not merely a collection of non-english words.

French is less of a real language than English is. French is just frog latin.

What should they have used then? EBCDIC?

Except that it isn't, 25% of English vocab comes straight from French, there's hardly anything 'real' or 'original' about English, which is only Germanic at its core, to the point it hardly even resembles a proper Germanic language such as Dutch, German or the Nordic ones.

Tsunami is english word now.
Typhoon is english word now.
Juggernaut is english word now.

"Loan" words become english word over time.
