For the "snack" word you skipped Turkish. In Turkish it is "atıştırmalık".

@lizelantt

All languages here are Indo-European except Turkish, which is an Altaic, Asian language. English and German belong to the Germanic branch of the Indo-European language tree, Spanish and Italian to Romance languages and Greek is an independent Indo-European branch, called Hellenic.

@moondyk

The case is, in Turkish we have Persian, Arabic and French versions of each word being used for the same meaning at the same time. So you need to ask the Turkish version of words. Like misafir is the common word in daily language use, but the Turkish word is Konuk.

@oinotropwick1144

sketch also means "eskiz" in Turkish. it looks like the word "schizzo".

@evrencagin

In Turkish we also say "Konuk" for guest

@dimspil64

As far as i know the English language has approximately 80.000 greek words and the Spanish has almost 20.000 greek words. The lady from the USA said the word schizo (scizofrenia) which is Greek " schizo = σχίζω" , scizofrenia=σχιζοφρένεια let's say means "splitted mind".

@JumpyWanderer

Latin borrowed many words from Ancient Greek, and there are many Latin words that English borrowed and actually originated from Ancient Greek. Taking it into account, Greek influence is enormous.

@MIKRASIATISSA

Please give us more content with Greece and Turkey together. I think we need it to strengthen our relations as soon as possible, as people. Politicians tend to tear us apart. Let's change that. I loved this episode <3

Mamma actually comes from the Greek word μάμμη (mámmē). Chest is also Mastos is Greek and Mammography is Mastographia

@jengomango6476

Yogurt is one of the few Turkish words that exist in English and the Turkish girl didn't say that it's a Turkish word in origin. Other words of Turkish origin in English are kiosk, kaftan, yurt.

It's very interesting to see diverse words from different cultures and again Turkey is back on World Friends. Great to learn more

@dimspil64

It is true that in Greece we have "adopted" some Turkish , some Latin or even some Albanian words but there is always a second or a third version of the same word coming from the ancient Greek language.
