As we all know English is a mixture of so many languages. Majorly Latin and Greek, but today there are quite a many Sanskrit and Hindi word in it too... and that too not only in Indian English, but they are accepted in the Oxford dictionary! <br /><br />This is the only language which has not resisted changing.
