And here I thought that ‘pasta’ was an English word.
Oh, wait, it IS an English word. English is smart enough to steal, with regularity, words from other languages and make them its own. That’s why English is a rich, vibrant language. And the opposite approach that some French speakers take is the reason that French may become a static, and hence dying, language.
Pasta actually comes from the Latin word Pasta
