All of modern day English is not from either Latin or Greek. English is a Germanic language which came from an area south of modern day Denmark. Originally it was called Anglo Saxon, or Old English. Later on people added Latin and Greek words for terms that weren’t available in the original language – mostly for science, medicine, and law. Many words were also added from Latin via French after the Norman conquest in 1066. The majority of words used by people when speaking every-day English is still germanic. The structure of the language is still germanic too.
