Appendix:Learnt borrowings in Bengenese

Bengenese incorporates terms by way of cultisms. These terms are used in formal contexts as opposed to legacy or compound terms with the same meaning. Although other times there is no proper word in Bengenese to express a concept and it is decided to take the term in Greek and introduce it to the language. This is called learnt borrowings or learnt loan.

Examples of learnt borrowings
Sometimes the loan does not constitute a word by itself, but is used in compounds as a suffix or prefix. For example, sidir- (from Ancient Greek σίδηρος) is used in chemistry to refer to iron, which in Bengenese is called šelesu, a term that comes from железо.
