Let's Learn English! English Words That We Stole From Other Languages (Lesson Only)

In this English lesson I will help you learn English words that originally came from other languages. They may not quite look the same, the may not mean the some, and the certainly won't sound the same, but all of these words do originally come from another language.
There are many loan words in English that originally come from the French, Spanish, Dutch, Arabic, Japanese languages. As you learn English you may find the odd word that is from your own language. The English language has historically quite often borrowed words from other languages for certain things. In this English lesson I will teach about 40 words that have been taken from other languages.
This was an enjoyable English lesson for me create and I'm sure you'll enjoy it a lot. It is, of course, much more than a simple English vocabulary lesson. I'll define each word, and make sure that I also give many example sentences.
I hope you enjoy this English class where you'll learn where some English words came from!

    what I found about a mammoth. The origin is unclear. The most preferable interpretation of the word as borrowing. from Mansi language, where it is the addition of man "earthen" and ońt "horn". Initially, the word mammoth did not mean an animal, but its tusks, a mammoth bone. The Mansi languages (previously, Vogul and also Maansi) are or were spoken by the Mansi people in Russia along the Ob River and its tributaries, in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, and Sverdlovsk Oblast.
