http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wanderwort, 18 Febr. 2007: A word that was spread among numerous languages and cultures, usually
in connection with trade, so that it becomes impossible to establish its
original etymology, or even its original language. Interestingly even back in Egyptian times there was a corroded version with H instead of C:
𓎛 𓆰 𓈖 | H.n | cannabis (unless 𓎛 was closer to C than to H) |
