The influence of exotic languages on the English language

The influence of exotic languages on the English language

INSTRUCTIONS:

The influence of exotic languages on the English language - present day English - 1.Sanskrit 2. Hindi 3.Dravidian 4.Arabic. (borrowings - the words that English has borrowed from exotic countries)

We need to write a bit about those languages and give example of the words that come from those languages. The words that I found are below. But you can only pick the most interesting ones, like in Hindi - pijamas. 

That is what I found myself:

Sanskrit : avatar, karma, mahatma, swastika, yoga. 

Hindi: bandanna, bangle, bungalow, chintz, cot, cummerbund, dungaree,juggernaut, jungle, loot, maharaja, nabob, pajamas, punch (the drink),shampoo, thug, kedgeree, jamboree

Dravidian:curry, mango, teak, pariah

Arabic :bedouin, emir, jakir, gazelle, giraffe, harem, hashish, lute, minaret,mosque, myrrh, salaam, sirocco, sultan, vizier, bazaar, caravan.

If you want you can use different words. You can use as many sources as you want. But when you quote please don`t write the author at the end of the sentence. Please do it this way: as remarked by Comrie (2010), As stated by...according to etc.



Please let me know in case any delay I need to have it done before the end of the month. Please notice that I marked single spaced this time.

The influence of exotic languages on the English language Name Course Instructor Date Exotic languages and present day English Languages typically undergo change as people interact and the exchange of influence results from contact with people speaking a different language. Even though, the role of exotic languages in influencing English, does not receive much attention, there is a need to highlight instances where there has been borrowing. The exotic languages have mostly influenced English lexicon (vocabulary), and in most cases the nouns are borrowed more than other parts of speech since they represent objects and things. In any case, nouns tend to be semantically and syntactically autonomous, making it easier for English borrowers to absorb new words in the language.
