I do know that the English language, having between 600,000 and 700,000 words in it, is very wordy, having far more words in it than the Hebrew. The Greek may also have less words in it than the English. This being the case, these languages, especially the Hebrew requires a thorough and thoughtful reading of the context in order to determine what a given word means, since fewer words are available to express what one is intending to convey. Of course this is true to a greater or lesser extent in all languages.
