English Touch Presents #dailyenglishdose English from Other Languages Fact: More than 60% of English words come from other languages — it’s like a giant mix of global words! Borrowed words include: “Kindergarten” – from German (means "children's garden") “Safari” – from Arabic via Swahili (means "journey") “Café” – from French (means "coffee shop") “Pajamas” – from Hindi/Urdu pāyjāma (meaning leg garment) “Robot” – from Czech (means forced labor) That’s why English is often called a “borrower” language — it absorbs and adapts words from all over the world!
