Filed under: Dictionary — タグ: , , , , — admin @ 1:53 AM

Question by John: How to find out if a word is borrowed or native in the dictionary?
I am having problem with some homework in one of my classes. I am supposed to find out if a word is borrowed or native by looking the word up in the dictionary and reading the etymology. I sort of understand how to read an etymology but I dont understand how I can tell from the etymology if its borrowed or a native word. does anyone think they can help me?
Thank you

Answer by Dahlia
I’d say that if the earliest origin of the word is in your native language, then it’s not borrowed.
