Best Answer

Yes, Brassica is a Latin origin word. It's the botanical Latin name for some of the cabbage, cauliflower, mustard, rapeseed and turnip members of the crucifer family of vegetables. But no, Cumin isn't a Latin origin word. Instead, it comes from the Arabic 'kammun', and refers to the spice whose botanical name is Cumin cyminum.
