I am guessing you want words that have been taken from other languages and used in English?

There are many borrowed words in English. Here are two, I am fairly sure of their origins.

Pajamas. Comes from Hindi which comes from Persian pai = leg and jamah = garment.

Bungalow. Come from Hindi bangla = house.

Have a look at these list in Wikipedia.
