What are two words in english that are borrowed from arabic?
Quite a few English words come from other languages. A loanword is when a word is taken from one language (a donor language) and adopted by a second (the recipient). Any time there is substantial contact between two languages (or two dialects) this tends to happen. Some types of words are borrowed more than others (numbers are almost never borrowed, for example). Names of foods, on the other hand, are extremely common. Here are some examples from English: Norwegian: fjord, geyser French: beef, devise Arabic: alcove, cotton Spanish: alligator, renegade Italian: pastel, sketch
