how many of you have actually® adfenestrated

More times than I care to remember. I must now drag this thread back to things wordy. When I was learning German, it fascinated me that our Teuton cousins had adopted the Latin word, while English, normally so ready to larcenise Latin, had stuck with a clearly Germanic word in window. Are there any other common examples of German ditching Germanic in favour of Latin, while English preserves the Germanic? Additionally, does that last sentence make any sense?
