Question

the united states legal language includes latin terms, including Habeas corpus andex post facto. however, english is not a language that is derived directly from latin. why does english contain these words

Answer 1

because Roman law forms the foundation of the U.S system , these words were borrowed from latin
because many countries in europe used latin when the U.S was founded and the founding fathers did as well
because latin based languages are easily understood these words help U.S law to be understood in europe
because Roman orators like cicero were read wildley in the 1800's these words could be understood by anyone
