Well, there's Poul Anderson's "Uncleftish Beholding", which talks
about the basics of physics and chemistry in Germanicised English --
see http://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.language.artificial/msg/69250bac6c7cbaff
(a newsgroup post) or
http://www.grijalvo.com/Citas/Peculiar_English.htm (in a package with
two addresses in Graecised English, where essentially all "content
words"--nouns, verbs, and adjectives--are of Greek origin).
