Linguistic rant
I am of the opinion this is not a good use of anyone's time. Etymology is great for understanding where our words originated. But languages change, pronunciations drift. Trying to "purify" one's language this way or that is inherently racist, again in my opinion. English is at it's root an amalgam, which is why it's so hard for everyone to learn as a second language. There are so many rules from so many other languages. If they want to remove the Germanic influence, they should call it Norman instead of Anglese, and even then it's still not fully removed from German because the Norse (Nordic-French) came from Germanic tribes! And don't get me started on the Gauls and Franks!
In short: just learn Latin. And ancient Greek. And Old Arabic. And old Hindi.
In fact, we should all, as a global community, drop the pretenses and attempt to reconstruct the ancient indo-european root language from which most of western languages derive. And I'm kinda of serious about that.
Example: Tuesday. Came from old English tīwesdæġ, from proto West Germanic Tīwas dag. Tiwas (in rune form) is where we got the letter T. It's also the name of an ancient god (Tiw in Anglo Saxon, Týr in Norse) which itself was derived from a presumed indo-european word dyew, meaning sky. THAT word can be found in different forms in a dozen other languages as "day" "sky" and "god", specifically in Aryan and Semitic languages.
So this "cleaning up" of a language into one or another form is, again my personal opinion, extremely dumb and kinda racist. It will lead to heated arguments about which word "belongs" in what language. It's admittedly a good practise in linguistics, but as a wholly stand alone language? Yeah, there just no point.
If you want to "purify" your language, good fucking luck. With the globalization of market/trade over the last... thousand years (!) cultures have integrated "foreign" words (read as: borrowed) and have changed over time. Again, English is not a pure language. Sure there's lots of French, thanks to William. But it's a lot of German/Norse as well as a bit of Latin and Arabic.
I mean, on this modern era of "facts over feelings" I can go fuck myself while you "do your own research". I hope that goes well for you and you learn a metric shit-tonne about English and it's non-aryan roots. Your feelings are gonna get so facted.

Teaching about solubility and water as the universal solvent:
Me: and so another word for nonpolar is hydrophobic, aka afraid of water.
Students: *nod with understanding of the root words*
Me: and therefore, another word for polar is hydrophilic, or water-loving.
Students: *blank looks*
Me: like how Philadelphia is "the city of brotherly love" same root word.
Students: *blank looks*
Me: ok, then let me give you a different word that maybe will connect better for you.
Me: necrophilia!
Students: *horrified looks*
Me: well, you'll remember it now, won't you!
