Which came first, Hebrew or Latin? They took everything, even our words.
There’s an interesting dictionary on this topic: The Word – The Dictionary that Reveals the Hebrew Roots of the English Language – by Isaac Mozeson. For example, Mr. Mozeson gives the root of magazine, the French word for store and used in English as storage of bullets in a gun, as the Hebrew “machsan.”
