what is the language of origin of the following words :athlete,cuisine,bungalow,chocolate,patio,ski and tea .?

Answer 1

Athlete = 15th century. Via Latin from Greek athlētēs , from athlein ‘to contend for a prize’. Originally used in English for ‘wrestler’

Cuisine = Late 18th century. Via French , literally ‘kitchen’, from Latin coquina , from coquere ‘to cook’ .

Bungalow = Late 17th century. From Hindi bańglā ‘of Bengal’

Chocolate = Early 17th century. Directly or via French chocolat ‘drinking chocolate’, from Spanish chocolate , from Nahuatl chocolatl , literally ‘bitter water’.

Tea = Mid-17th century. Origin uncertain: probably via earlier Dutch tee from, ultimately, Chinese (Amoy dialect) te .

The names used for meals can reveal a lot about the user’s social and regional origins. Tea is perhaps the most ambiguous term. It can refer to an optional light snack around 4 p.m. or a meal eaten around 6 p.m. In parts of West Africa, it may refer to any hot drink including coffee or cocoa, and in Guyana it is used to refer to the first meal of the day
