I appreciate the use of forlorn, which stems from Dutch verloren (lost, abandoned).

This is a pet peeve of mine, but no. All three words forlorn (English), verloren (Dutch), and verloren (German) have the same origin, but none derive from another.

If I remember correctly, words that are basically linguistic cousins are called cognates

*German. Dutch is a fake language.
