Even more interesting is when words are borrowed back! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reborrowing For example, katsu from cutlet, is borrowed back into English to mean… cutlet. And when combined with “curry” as in “katsu curry” the journey meanders all the way through Tamil, Portuguese, Japanese and English, following sailors where they went. |
