English is the same, just with spaces in between. Lumping ten nouns together for a mega compound noun can be useful but it isn't what I originally meant.
I meant English is flexible in the way it absorbs and digests foreign words and makes them sound and feel like natural parts of English.
It's uniquely good for engineering and science terms. For instance, if I try to translate a term like Random Access Memory to my native language, it just sounds dumb and doesn't tell you what it is.
