Aceituna en español
That’s an Arabic loan word if I’ve ever seen one
In french argot, people still say zitoune (zitun), I believe they got it from the algerians. Otherwise it’s just “olive”
Yep. Spanish has a number of Arabic loan words, given Spain was conquered by the moors for a bit.
Oliv in Swedish.
“Olive” (German).
Except our ‘e’ isn’t silent but pronounced as the ‘a’ in ‘air’ and the ‘o’ sound like the one in ‘or’.
橄榄（gǎn lǎn)
Olijf (Dutch)
And Olijfje for Popeye’s girlfriend…
And Olijfgroen for the colour.
Olive in french. Boring word I guess.
Depends on the meaning (🍑👈)

Hmm, I ate olive.
