Not a single one of those examples is an English-language word. They are all loanwords, with the exception of two proper nouns and an example of archaic spelling which hasn't been used in centuries.
-
When does a loanword become native? Single, example, language, exception, proper, use, and century are all words that came from French.
Not a lone one of those forebisens is an English-tongue word. They are all loanwords, with the outlier of two ownnames and a forebisen of oldspelling which hasn't been noted in yearhundreds.

Did you miss “tranq”, short for tranquilizer? It’s pretty native and modern sounding right? That being said ya the list is disappointing

Most of what I saw was specifically NOT an English word but a word from some other language....?!

Or brand names, or initialisms. Or literally the letter "Q" itself. All there just to bulk out the list to actually be long enough to have to scroll.
These guys must suck at Scrabble.

English speakers: "Our words."
