It's interesting how you use the Knowledge Machine and manage to have so little knowledge.
Most times English just steals from French or makes a new word based off of a stolen French word. That's because all technological words in English are usually of French/Latin origin, so any new invention or technology is likely going to be named more romance-like
>Most times English just steals from French or makes a new word based off of a stolen French word
