Yes and quite a bit of Gaelic too. e.g. English phase/word "smashing" is derived from "S'Math Sinn" which means "Thats good".

More recently "Galore" was borrowed.

Honestly its like AMD and Intel adding their MMX and AMD64 extensions.

EDIT: I'm derailing this thread for some comic relief. Feel free to prune.
