Many words in English ( European or North American versions ) originally were Latin or Greek., e.g. alibi. Of course, English has borrowed words from so many different languages e.g. taboo, menu, sauna, pasta, sourkraut, litre, liter, hamburger.

Actually, 63% of all English words come from Latin.
i don't know i think it was from latin words and greek words.
Yes, it's possible that Latin has a larger vocabulary than Greek. One reason is the borrowing of many words from the classical language of the ancient Greeks. But just for the record, the borrowing isn't one way. For example, the modern Greek names for the months of the year come from classical Latin.
Many scientific words do come from Latin or Greek. Over time, when new words are needed for new things, people create new Latin words that the Romans never used. Scientists also come up with new Greek words such as "drosophilia," the scientific name for fruit fly. "Droso" means dew, and "philia" means loving.
Most prefixes come from either Latin or Greek.
From Ancient Greek "homos," meaning similar, and Latin "stare," meaning "to remain."
Some words that come from the Latin root "contra" include contrary, contradict, and contravene. These words all involve the idea of something being against or opposite to something else.
