I know 'Plumber' comes from the word 'plumburd'
(Something to do with water I think)

Isn't our language based around Latin, which is why its so hard to learn?

Canus Canem Edit. Lol. I did Latin at school but cannot really remember much.

I remember my Greek alphabet from school though perfectly. Not that I ever use it.
