German actually used to make heavy use of French loan words for everyday objects. There was a very intentional shift in replacing loan words with Germanic words around the 1930s (really starting in the 1920s I think), I think you can imagine why that gained traction. So that's something to keep in mind with qualifications like that. It's noteworthy that university-level formal computer science courses still make heavy use of "German" words for lots of concepts which causes a lot of headaches when coming from or moving to international (i.e. English) sources, especially for things like algorithms and data structures or programming language concepts (e.g. pointers, stack, loops).
