mastodon is latin
Yes, words have etymology, but it doesn't really change anything and doesn't make latin, french, whatever-origin loanwords not be english or whatever the language is they're loaned to. You can't say "...well ackshually guillotine isn't english, it's french".
PS. It was a dumb joke.
