ASTONISH isn't Latin-French either, although the word was shaped by Fr. estonner. The word has the same root as STUN.

@AnWUlf:

STUN is Teutonic, not Latin-French. See here: http://books.google.com/books?id=aDhGlKL3h00C&pg=PA478&lpg=PA478&dq=stun+etymology&source=bl&ots=t4xOj59bGh&sig=rP2TRuA1wZI7whE6f4bQ2qMO--s&hl=en&ei=leBuTrfmNaPe0QHOzf36CQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CCgQ6AEwAzgK#v=onepage&q=astound&f=false

While "habitat" and "environment" are sometimes said to mean the same thing, they are not:

"environment is the area in which something exists or lives; habitat is a the place or type of place where a person or thing is most likely to be found"--http://thesaurus.com/browse/habitat

Therefore, two words should likely be thought about to put in the stead of each.

ease >> is likely a Teutonic or Celtic word, not Latin. The root of O.F. aise is unknown, although some have thought that L. agius is the root; the root has not yet been borne out.

I put forth the following, even though William Walter Skeet would disagree:

ease

@Stanmund:

hatred >> O.E. hatian + O.E. -rǣden (ending meaning state, condition, reckoning, reasoning, read, counsel, to explain, rule, advise)

hundred, kindred, hatred, O.E. burgrǣden "citizenship", lipread, speechread, asf. The ending is also found in Germanic names (cf. Alfred [O.E. Ælfræd]; Ethelred [O.E. Æþelræd])

Shaftment (c.910 A.D.) >> "the distance from the tip of the outstretched thumb to the opposite side of the palm of the hand = 1/2 foot or 6 inches (15.24 centimeters)" >> O.E. sceaftmund (P.Gmc *skaftaz "shaft" + P.Gmc *mundō "hand, protection, sceurity, guaridianship"; same P.I.E. root, whence L. manus (Fr. main, Sp./ It. mano, Port. mão).

This word is a good showing of how Latin-French in-flow has warped English. Looking at this word, most would say that this is a Teutonic/Latin blend because of the -ment ending.

English spelling should be fixed, then maybe the roots of English would be better seen.

Wine Press >> O.E. wīntredd(e)

Oil Press >> O.E. æl(e)tredd(e)

BTW...I think Latin/French/Celtic words that were in English before 1066 A.D. are fine, too, unless an O.E. word was needlessly put out of the wordstock.
