Many English words are made up from Latin words - to give a few examples,
1. The Latin word for slave, 'servus', gives us our words 'servant' and 'servile' and 'servitude'
2. The Latin word for language, 'lingua', gives us the word 'linguistic'
3. The Latin word for dog, 'canis', gives us 'canine'
4. The word for horse, 'equus', gives us 'equestrian'
5. The Latin word for 'one', 'unus', gives us 'unicycle', 'unilateral', and 'unanimous' among others.
There are many more; these are just a few examples which I hope will clear things up for you.
Hope this helps! :)
The vast majority of roots are Germanic in origin, however, akin to the words used in German or Dutch.

Julius Caesar did not force to conquered Britons to speak Latin because he never conquered Britain. He only made two attempts at invasion, but was forced to turn back because of the weather.

Who made the English language?
The English language was not created at any one time or by any one person or group of people. It evolved over the centuries from the language of the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes (who invaded Roman Britain from Western Germany around 450 AD.), which absorbed some Scandinavian during the period of Danish settlement and then combined with the Norman French that was spoken by the ruling classes after the Norman conquest of England to form an early version of the English language.
