Did you even read the list of words. None of them are even English.

This might be a shock for you, but 80% of the English words are "borrowed" from another language.

Always a “U” after the letter “Q”.
I mean, unless you count all the loanwords. Like qanat.
They are few, though there, if you are thorough, some are rough on the vocals though. English is a real bastard mullinguo

Ebonics isn't English
It may be surprising to hear from me, but...no and yes. It's a bit of a pidgin. Not altogether different from what English was (old, middle and modern) seen as (*psst-vulgar) when Latin and French were the language of court.
I very much recommend "The History of English Podcast". Especially the episodes that center around the Canterbury tales. Lovely bit of lingual transition there

Qhat ain't no country I ever heard of. Do they speak English in Qhat?
