As you learn English you may run into a word or two that is actually from your own language. We often borrow or steal words from other languages for certain things.  In this English lesson I look at over 40 words that we have taken from other languages around the world.

You'll learn English words that were originally French, Dutch, Arabic, Japanese, and many more!

This was a fascinating English lesson for me create for you and I'm sure you'll enjoy it a lot. It will be much more than a simple English vocabulary lesson. I'll define each word, and give many example sentences with each.

I hope you enjoy this English class where we'll all learn about where some English words came from!
