Kind of like how "teepee," "pajamas," and "karaoke" aren't REAL English words because they were words in other languages first :-P

How does that make them fake English words? Almost every word in English comes from some other language, either German or French or Latin or Celtic etc. That doesn't mean those words are not real English words or that they don't have English spellings.

I'm gonna have to disagree with ya, jimandnat: 75-80% of English words are "non-native" – i.e. NOT from Old-English or Germanic sources. A good chunk of English words come down from Latin, but usually through French or other Romance languages; the rest of the foreign loaner word are from Greek and a smattering other random languages. It's fair to say that German and OLD English are "sister" languages (at least in the way that you mean it: "derived from a common source"), but not German and MODERN English. Only a quarter-ish of Modern English words come from Old English and Germanic (but not Modern German) sources.

The problem with using vocabulary as a measure of language origin is that an absolute ton of the words you'll find even in standard dictionaries are scientific terminologies that nobody uses in normal conversation, and which primarily come from Latin, Greek or both. Whereas the majority of the words we use on an everyday basis will in fact be from Germanic. So there's a bit of confusion there I think

I suggest that the definition of matinee should be broader than just a movie. In Australia the most common usage is for afternoon performances of plays/theatre productions.
