English has "borrowed" many words from other languages, for example, in the field of music from Italian, Greek, and French. The English pronunciation is often similar to their pronunciation in their original language, e.g. ch in words which come from Greek is /k/, e.g orchestra /ôrkəstrə/, and also ch choir /ˈkwīər/, from French ballet /baˈlā/, genre /ZHänrə/.
