Feel free to have a look-see at what that could look like. Taxonomy isn't "taxonomy" anymore, it's "setlore." Find that easier to understand?
https://anglish.fandom.com/wiki/Lifelore ("Lifelore" is biology)
It's an "Anglish" wiki, based on Poul Andersson's "Uncleftish Beholding", a text that's trying to see what English would look like if it didn't have latin borrowings as much, just the teutonic words.
Here's some atomic theory ie "uncleftish beholding".
https://anglish.fandom.com/wiki/Uncleftish_Beholding
To be fair, the atom names are literally just German. Except sunstuff, that's Helium in German too. Not too difficult to parse imo but I may be biased.
But it's not like I want all French influence be gone. Rather, for common things it feels... artificial(?) to use some fancy Latin word when it just refers to something so basic it shouldn't have a Latin word outside of scientific contexts to begin with.
It's like a science fiction novel where the author insists on naming the Earth Terra, the Moon Luna and the Sun Sol. It feels needlessly artificial and somewhat clinical.
