In the phrase "... procede del vocablo latín" you have used a noun ["latín"]. Shouldn't it be an adjective? > "... procede del vocablo latino" ?
I am in the middle of doing your writing exercise "Castile comes from 'Castle'" > https://spanish.kwiziq.com/my-languages/spanish/exercises/take/667/6083595?page=6 ... and incorrectly used "¿Qué ... ?" to translate "What is its origin?" ... I have to confess that the difference between "¿Qué es ... ?" and "¿Cuál es ... ?" was something which I had not yet grasped properly !
I consulted my grammar book, which explains that "¿Qué es ... ?" really means "What kind of thing?", i.e., inquiring about the definition of something's nature.... > which is of course what you say in your reply [below] to R.Z., [Thank you Inma !] - and which is supplemented by other comments from Kwiziq students.
It might be worth including this distinction in the grammar-notes which accompany the above-mentioned writing exercise.
