enumerable -> innumerable

(opposite meaning)

Funnily enough, e- means "out" (more fundamentally "from") and in- means "in(to)", so that's not an unexpected way to form opposite words.

But in this case, innumerable begins with a different in- meaning "not". (Compare inhabit or immiserate, though.)

Yeah, English has so many quirks. As a software dev, the "enum" type cane to mind, making this one easier to spot. (shrug)

Arguably true in general, but in this specific case everything I said was already true in Latin.

Relevance? I'd say it's inarguable -- and the words being discussed are English.
