I have interesting one, Arabic ”قناة" (qana) - for tube, duct, channel become in English: 1. cane - because of tube like structure. 2. cannon - probably through French. 3. channel - through French "canal". 4. gun - that interesting because it is direct from Arabic, original first letter "q" sounds between "k" (like in cannon) and "g" (in gun) - and English "gun" sounds even more close to Arabic "qana" than French "cannon".

I appreciate this podcast. I'm a fan of your channel, and they're impressive, but I think they'd be even better if you explained the more tough words used. You do touch on this to some extent, but I think it would be beneficial if you gave it more attention.

You are so great Anna! To cheer and encourage you, I will just say something in relation with your last interrogations: You know, these are the kind of '40 minutes' spent in my life that I consider among the most valuable and worthy! You are all but boring ... I knew quite a few about them but I still learnt '2 or 3 little things' in addition to the immense pleasure of listening to your mellifluous and appeasing voice that I love. It acts on me like a bliss elixir! I like 'crimson' and 'In the court of the King Crimson' as well... ;-) 🎸 Merci infiniment Anna, that was magnificent and engrossing just like all of your amazing podcasts so far! 🙏👌👏👏 Keep them coming! Je t'aime, bisous 😘🌹💞 ❤

A couple of mistakes: _Caravan_ is from Persian, and so is _check(mate)_ or _chess._ The latter is the same word that we know from titles like the "Shah of Iran" and it simply means _king,_ the main piece in chess.
@fabrice9252
@fabrice9252 Жыл бұрын
Basically, the word 'Caravan' was picked up during the Crusades from Arabic 'qairawan' which was also influenced from the Persian 'karwan', meaning “group of desert travelers”. The word 'checkmate' is originally the Arabic word 'shah mat' meaning “the king died”, which according to some etymologysts is a misinterpretation of the Persian mat “be astonished” as mata “to die,” mat “he is dead.”

Hi over there! When we say "post" it means tacking something onto a bulletin board, say. We use the verb "to mail" where British English charmingly uses "to post" instead. I'm trying, racking my brain here, to think of the old-fashioned word my grandmother used instead of "sofa". I will remember it at 4:00 AM. LOL

well i hear chemistry in day to day conversation not referring to the science but in film and relationships. even though i dont use this slang version of the word, the circles i traverse in (movie criticism) i hear it daily "those actors were miscast, they had no chemistry".

Indeed serenity! Informally and figuratively, a 'chemistry' or 'alchemy' can also designate a reaction, a kind of physical or spiritual match taken to be instinctual, between two persons.

For example, in Quran, the word 'Salat' means to have a prayer and turn your heart to the Creator, and in your language the word 'salute' means 'greeting'. ( I am not an Arab, I am a Turk). Also In our language, the word 'selam' means greeting just like that of Arabic because a lot of words comes from Arabic. In old Turkish, it is called ' Esenle'. Finally, Selam, salute, salat and esenle are nearly the same thing. As you know, Arabic, Turkish and Hebrew are one of the oldest languages, but I respect to all languages spoken by other people all over the world

Thank you Alya. Yes, the etymology of words can be quite tricky. I seems indeed that it comes from Medieval Latin elixir, itself coming from Arabic اَلْإِكْسِير‎ (al-ʔiksīr), the latter from Ancient Greek ξηρίον (xēríon, “medicinal powder”), from ξηρός (xērós, “dry”)

Dear Anne, are you, by any chance, looking 👀 for the elixir of eternal youth? If so, I therefore advise you to take chemistry 🧪 more seriously 😒! Otherwise, your search 🔍 is likely to produce zero results. Indeed, it could become a mere algebraic study 📚. Because, as you already know, you can’t make a silk purse 👜 out of a pig’s ear 👂! Wish you the very best in your field work, and hopefully 🤞 you’re going to be in high cotton from now on.
