Nice, and with a good word as well!
alose (French) – shad
Septiembre - September in spanish
revelatur (Latin) – it was pulled out
Just to check, I think it is OK to use a dictionary if you want to look up inflections of a word, or you have an English word and you want the French word it comes from, etc.
Well I don’t know what words come from french, so yeah:)

turnout - english
outher (οὖθᾰρ, udder, Ancient Greek)
herself - english again:)
Sorry I don’t know as much from other languages as other people.
I found outher by looking at cognates of the English word – just gotta be handy with Wiktionary ^^
Esperanto elfo (elf)
Good job they went with English elf as their base, not the more common Germanic alf variants

I had to look this up to make sure it was a word. Wouldn’t want to write something that wasn’t a word:)

jihad (Arabic), means struggle or battle
Well I meant the one that words can become. Like if you had a kanji test in school. I could give you a pic from School Judgement, but it might not be very helpful. I will just go with definition 1.
also my new word will be addition as in the mathematical term. It is english.
漢字 means “Chinese letter”, and that’s what it is, the name for the Chinese characters in Japanese. In (Mandarin) Chinese they call them hànzì, and in Korea they’re called hanja.
Schönheit (German), means beauty, and indeed the first syllable sounds almost exactly as the end of “addition”
