Original: For instance, abstract nouns in English may be formed from native words by the suffixes "&#8209;hood", "-ship", "-dom" and "-ness".
Simplified: The word "English" was then and that comes from the name of the Angles - Englas. Those words came to English also, for example, photography ("photo-" means "light" "and "-graph" means "picture" or "writing", in Greek. There is a difference between some spellings in America and the United Kingdom, sometimes called "American English" and "British English". For example "color" is spelled "colour" in the UK.
