Words coming into English from other languages
hello, everybody Since this forum interested in many languages I wanted to show how English language borrows many words from other languages .and you can ask for help from other people who specialized in these languages or just ask me ...Here we are Word \ origin \ meaning Amber \ Arabic \ yellowy-orange precious stone Roster \ Dutch \ list of people's turns for jobs Tabby \Farsi \ female or stripy cat Gimmick \ German \frivolous way of attracting attention Tonic \ Greek \ medicine that make you feel more lively Cot \ Hindi \child's bed with high vertical sides Mumps \ Icelandic \ a childhood illness Kara-kiri \ Japanese \ type of ceremonial suicide Palaver \ Portuguese \ unnecessary trouble Intelligentsia \ Russian \ social class of intellectuals Hammock \ Spanish \ net hung and used as a bed Turban \ Turkish \ type of men's headwear by the way this is an advanced level of English vocabulary so if you know most of them that means your English is so great …if you don't try to learn them because someday you will encounter to them specially in spoken English Finally, I hope you got benefits from the list above Written by : English student وصلى الله وسلم على نبينا الحبيب |
