Do you often use shampoo? Do you put ketchup on your food? Have you ever visited a sauna? If you think these words are originally English, you’d better think again. In fact, each of these words comes from a different language. Shampoo, for example, is actually a Hindi word and comes from India. This word originally meant "massage. " In hair shops in India, barbers massage your head while washing your hair. Over time, British people in India came to use this word for the washing liquid.
Almost everyone knows ketchup. People all over the world like to pour this tomato sauce on their French fries or sandwiches. However, this word is originally Chinese(from kctsiap, a fish sauce). In the 1600s, British and Dutch sailors took this fish sauce back to Europe. Over time, people added a tomato flavor to it. But the name remained basically the same.
Sauna, a popular type of public steam room and shower facility, comes from the Finnish language. It first became famous at the Olympics. Athletes from Britain and Germany saw Finnish athletes use saunas after training. Later, the general public all over Europe started using this style of bathing too. Now, we use this word to describe all kinds of steam rooms.
English is full of many wonderful borrowed words from many diverse languages. Perhaps English should change its name to Eng-hin-chi-fin-fre-ger-ital-span-ish. [br] ______, a popular type of public steam room and shower facility, first became famous at the Olympics.
