in queen elizabeth i's time, english began to expand to even greater depths. overseas trade brought new words from france, as well as the now popular swearwords "fokkinge," (fucking) "krappe," (crap) and "bugger" from dutch, in the 16th century. sailors also brought all kinds of produce like apricots, bananas, limes, yams, cocoa, potatoes, port wine from spain and portugal, chocolate and tomatoes from france as well words from 50 other languages including "coffee," "magazine," and "alcohol" from arabic countries.

"the decade on either side of the year 1600 saw thousands of latin words come into the english vocabulary of educated people, words like 'excavate,' 'horrid,' 'radius,' 'cautionary,' 'pathetic,' 'pungent,' 'frugal' [...]," states bragg in this episode. the inkhorn controversy, a debate about the english language and where its new words should come from, soon followed. a few scholars, including john cheke, wished that the language should not use latin or greek words to expand the english vocabulary, but rather anglo-saxon ones.

english eventually obtained its own dictionary. eight years before italian and 35 years before french. however, this is a huge difference from the arabic dictionary, which was made 800 years before and the sanskrit, which was created nearly 1000 years before the english.
