What is "borrowing"?
Borrowing is a linguistic process in which one language takes words or phrases from another language and incorporates them into its own vocabulary. This often occurs due to cultural contact, trade, migration, or the influence of media. For example, English has borrowed numerous words from languages like French, Spanish, and Italian, such as "café," "taco," and "pizza." Borrowing can enrich a language by introducing new concepts or terms that do not have direct equivalents. The borrowed words may retain their original pronunciation and spelling, or they may be adapted to fit the phonetic and grammatical rules of the borrowing language over time.
