Hello,teacher Anne

Excuse me

Aren't there  any equivalent between Persian and English? Or another languages

Thanks a lot

Your article is very benefit for me 

Hello, interesting article! We use the word "bungalow" in French, and I always thought it was borrowed from English.

For a Canadian like me, a "chalet" is a holiday home (second property), ranging from a simple shack to a multi million dollar home by the sea.

In French we say "ombrelle" too. A parasol is a big thing over a table, an ombrelle is a small portable sun protector, not very fashionable these days. I always thought it was funny you say "umbrella" for a rain protector, as "ombrelle" are definitely not rainproof as they are made of lace or paper or similar.

Hi Anne!

I agree with you, it's really interesting how different languages could interlace and gradually enter in the current vocabularies.

I read the article you linked and, about Italian, "umbrella" is not one of our words because we say "ombrello". But I know it's very similar.

In Italy we have a lot of words from other languages too:

"stage" - internship

"weekend"

"all inclusive" - travel

"background"

"benchmark", "benefit", "marketing", "management", "vision", "mission", "brand awareness", "brand strategy", "advertising", "pr" and a lot of terms in marketing and communication area, I notice I'm using more english words than italian in my job!

"badge"

"band"

"check up"

"community", "download", "display", "mouse", "scanner" and the major part of terms referring to computer's area are said in English

"chewing gum"

"clown"

"coming out"

"feedback"

"fan"

"fitness", "wellness"

"evergreen"
