Portuguese say it the original way, since that is how Chinese say it. Cha is also how Koreans say it, and Japanese say ocha. (Chai is basically tea, so when people say chai tea, they are saying tea tea. Lol). Tea comes from China, and the Portuguese had Macau as a colonial settlement for trade. Apparently, the Azores are the one of few places in a European country that grow tea, though they are not in mainland Europe.
@@lissandrafreljord7913 There is the theory that the Portuguese got into the "cha" group because you got tea via water route. Everywhere else in Europe tea was received by land route (silk road) which is why they all belong to the "t" group.

“beer” - Even the Europeans can distinguish a British English accent. Although as an American I can definitely hear the difference in the Spanish and Mexican Spanish accents.
@@PriWolf totalmente de acuerdo ☺️ A person from Spain can distinguish accents from different areas of the country, especially if they are very strong accents. So the difference with other Spanish-speaking countries is even more common. I think the variety of accents and variations in Spanish is beautiful, they give it a lot of life to the language 🤗
@@ChriSX13 hahahaha never heard of the lips 😅 The Spanish of Spain (Castilian) is generally more formal and similar to Latin, the mother tongue of Spanish ☺️ The Iberian Peninsula was a long time belonging to the Roman Empire and, except Euskadi (north of Spain), the rest adopted the language with some variations and influences from other languages, such as Arabic when it was Muslim territory ☺️ Each region and each Spanish-speaking country has been mixing and incorporating words from their native languages and the current languages that most influence them 😉 That is why in Latin America the use of words similar to those of the United States is very common. I think that one of the most differentiating things between the Spanish in Spain and the Spanish in Latin America is the pronunciation of the "c" and the "z" 🤔 I love learning this difference ❤️ It's like the language is alive 🤗
I don't know who made the subtitles but the "r" sound in "orange" is the same in French and German... there's no way it's pronounced "o-hange" in French...
I’ve only studied French in school for a few years (and was not conversational in it), but to my knowledge it is pronounced “o-haange” just like Soledad pronounced it? The French definitely don’t pronounce it “o-raange” or “o-rraange” or “o-renge”. Can you enlighten me if I’m correct or wrong?
If I remember well, Ananas is a word which come from native american's language to describe the fruit when Christophe Colomb (I know we all call him differently) colonized America after discovering it, and that's why some latin american countries like Argentina also say Anana. It meant "perfumed" or something like this for native americans 👌🏼
@@RyanBarroso I don't know. I think we borrowed the word from Latin or some European explorers. It's not our word orginally. I guess oranges were first imported to Europe from Asia, so calling them "appelsin" (Chinese apples) made sense to people.
@@BigmanDogs What I mean is that the 2 are correct we can say the 2 there is no rule. Some say "Anana" because in the Ameridian language it is said "Anana" but since there is an "s" in the French word others say "ANANANASSE". Both are correct :). I hope you understood me 😅😅.
It depends if it's in plural or singular. I think that when it's in plural we pronounce it "Anana-s-" like "Des Anana-s-" and when it's in singular you pronounce it "Anana*S*" like "Un Anana*S*" such a hard language right ? I'm a native French Speaker so first of all my English is kinda bad (I speak for myself). And I don't know if all Frenchs have this pronunciation in this context.
th is wrong with my comment. When I wrote Anana-s- that's mean that you don't pronounce the "S" and when I wrote Anana*S* that's mean that you pronounce it.
i love these comparision videos! but as a person from central-eastern europe, i would like to see someone here talking in any slavic language, it’s sometimes REALLY different, for example tea in polish is "herbata", so it could be fun to compare with
Herbata must be related to herb (and ört, in my native language). We say örtte ("herb tea") about camomille, peppermint and other "teas" that are not really from the tea plant.
Actually Snow White was published by the Brothers Grimm in 1812 in Germany, as a collection of fairy tales. It's original Low German title was Sneewittchen (or Schneeweisschen in High German), which became Schneewittchen later on. In the same fairy tales collection you will also find Cinderella (Aschenputtel), Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, Little Red Riding Hood and many more.
Snow White is called Sneeuwwitje in Dutch, which I believe is very close to Low German. In fact, the Dutch called their language "Nederduits" up to the 19th century.

@@empireiranpersian9875 I think it is the same in Arabic, Turkish, Greek, and Romanian. They all use some sort of derivative of Portugal for the word orange. I'm guessing the Portuguese sailors were responsible for distributing this fruit to most of those countries that those countries started associating the fruit with Portugal. The fruit is originally native to India, China, and Myanmar, and Portugal did have colonies in the former two.
Finally they put a French girl who looks *interested* and also seems nice. Finalement, il ont trouvé une Française sympathique qui a au moins l'air interessée!!!!
In my mother tounge Marathi(Indian language) we call Orange "Naranga" very similar to Spanish and for pineapple we have exact same word as French and German "Ananas". I think these words for fruits come from very ancient proto Indo European language thats why they feel so similar and are not altered even after thousands of years.
Dude, just if they had put spanish people from different regions of spain would have been chaos too. Like, in most of spain " prestar" is " to lend something" , but in asturias, for example " prestar" means " to like something".
I believe the pineapple comes from the Amazon Forest and the Portuguese brought the fruit to Europe but it is funny because the name in Portuguese is Abacaxi.. nothing to do with the names in the other languages...
Abacaxi comes from Tupi (a common indigenous language in what is now Brasil), literally meaning “fruit with a strong, pleasant smell”, while ananás comes from Guaraní (another common indigenous language with a lot of connections to Tupi) and means “good fruit”. Ananás was, for whatever reason, adopted first, while abacaxi was only adopted in Portuguese around the independence of Brazil, and thus never ended in Portugal. Ananás is used in Brazilian Portuguese for the wilder, less sweet and commercial variants of the fruit, while abacaxi is used in Portugal due to commercial influence from Brasil.
No, the story of Cinderella was first told by the ancient Greeks, who said she had Egyptian origins. It is part of the tradition of many cultures and was widespread in southern Europe, in fact it was part of the oral tales of Greece, Italy and France. The first to give her a name linked to the ash and a shoe was Gianbattista Basile in Lo Cunto de li Cunti, the "Pentamerone", in the story "La gatta cenerentola" ("cenere" means ash in Italian), then was made famous by Charles Perrault many years later, when he published his own version and censored many of the rough parts of the story. The French version is more famous than the older ones but the story of Cinderella has no French origins and was known for many centuries in Europe, Africa and even Asia.
I think in english "ananas" is called "pineapple" because of it looking kind of similar to a pinecone as well as "apple" being a word that was formerly used for fruits in general. Same for "Granatapfel" or "Apfelsine" in german, those being pomegranate and orange. Pomegranate even uses the french word for apple, "pomme". Potatoes in french being "pomme de terre" or in some german dialects "Erdapfel" is another example, both of these translate to "apple from the earth".
In all Slavic languages in Eastern Europe, beer is simply called “pivo”. So in Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Russia and Bulgaria.
To clarify, 'ananas' comes from Brazilian tribes, where actually the fruit is originally from. In Spain it took the name for its similarity to pines (or piñas, in Spanish). That is the Latin word (pinna).
German Nouns are all capitalized, so you have to write : Bier, Apfel, Orange, Ananas, Tee, Parfüm, Rose, Wein, Kaffee (error in subtitle), Schneewittchen, Aschenputtel,
It is actually Café when you're talking about the establishment. Like "Gehen wir ins Café?". It's only Kaffee when you're talking about the drink or the beans.
In brazilian portuguese,we have the word "pomo" for fruits in general,but its a very old word and its not used anymore. perfume,café(with an open and strong "E") and laranja(with a "L") its almost the same.
Please, watch out for sound problems with your videos. In many of them there's always someone who can't be heard because their mic is broken or something.
i am addicted to this series. Y'all are so engaging. btw, ananas is from Portugese or arabic, likely introduced to french/german via trade. many indo european languages including persian, urdu and hindi call it ananas as well. its surprising to see orange is a naranja - in persian/urdu is also Narenj/Narang. No idea how it made it to spain
2:42 Ananá is the indigenous name of that fruit, pineapple is only what the Spanish called it when they saw it, due to its similarity with the cone pines, also the British, Pine-apple, in Spanish it would be "piña manzana". The word ananá is of Guaraní (Language spoken in Paraguay and Brazil) origin, from the word naná naná, which means ‘perfume of perfumes’.
Ananas comes from the Tupi word "nanas." Pineapples are endemic to South Brazil and Paraguay, and the Spanish and Portuguese conquistadors probably gave that word to the rest of the Old World, though apparently they forgot to adopted themselves. In Argentina, we also say ananá for pineapple instead of piña.
@@lissandrafreljord7913 But in India the word in Hindi 'Ananas' comes from the predecessor of hindi i.e which is Sanskrit. And sanskrit and older than than many countries in the world around (1700-1200 BC) Maybe we had same words but we didn't knew about existence of each other.
@@vibhassingh16 What word in Sanskrit are you specifically referring to that is connected to ananas? I'm pretty sure India probably got the word for pineapple from the Portuguese sailors, who probably introduced that fruit to India. The name of the fruit comes from the natives of South America.
@@lissandrafreljord7913 Columbus encountered the pineapple in 1493 on the Leeward island of Guadeloupe. He called it piña de Indes, meaning "pine of the Indians", and brought it back with him to Europe, thus making the pineapple the first bromeliad to leave the New World. So, that is how ananas came to India because it is named after Indians. 😑😂
There is a great variety of words in today's show to highlight how many words are similar and many are wildly different across different languages. I do think that it is interesting that there is Rose (the flower) Rose' (the wine) and Rose (the pink-ish color, that is halfway between red and magenta on the HSV color wheel). I was surprised to learn that the 1812 Grimm, Cinderella story was not the first with that storyline. The first recorded story featuring a Cinderella-like figure dates to Greece in the sixth century BCE. In that ancient story, a Greek courtesan named Rhodopis has one of her shoes stolen by an eagle, who flies it all the way across the Mediterranean and drops it in the lap of an Egyptian king.
It's all so similar because we have here only 2 languages families. You should ask someone from slavic or nordic country, then it will be more enjoyable
Except that most nordic countries also speak Germanic languages (Iceland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway), and there are already two Germanic languages in this video (English and German), so it really wouldn't add that much. But I agree in terms of potentially asking a Slavic language speaker to partake, maybe even someone who speaks a Uralic language like Hungarian or Finnish.

Ananas comes from South American native languages where the fruit comes from. The Portuguese imported the word to Europe. It's kind of strange that the Spanish don't use it.
Ohh I’m Portuguese and I had no idea. It’s quite interesting how languages evolved. Like tea, we say it chá because Portugal went to China and started using that word while the other countries in the video all have a similar word to tea.

In Spanish, beer can also be called "birra", and about the "ananás" comment, it means pineapple both in European Portuguese (not in Brazil, there they say "abacaxi" I think) and Italian as well. By the way, there could be a shorter way of saying pineapple in English, it would be "pine" but it isn't used to differentiate one kind and the other. We called pine to both pine and pineapple in Catalan and Spanish, with the same pronunciation but different spelling: "pinya" (Catalan) / "piña" (Spanish). Oh! And about the cafe/cafeteria, both in Catalan and Spanish we would also say "bar" or "granja", the bars here are quite different, they serve alcohol as well, but those aren't like pups, minors can go too, because they serve menues, tapas, coffee, ice-cream, juice, beers... And a "granja" would be the same thing but without serving any alcoholic beverage. We also have some pups. So, we might say: "let's go to the bar to drink some coffee" and that would be perfectly normal. Best regards from Barcelona.
In Argentina we also say ananá for pineapple. I believe they do the same in Uruguay and Paraguay. Pineapples are originally native to South Brazil and Paraguay, and the indigenous people there called it "nanas," hence why the name ananas in German and French. In Argentina a piña is a punch, as in a fist punch. Lol.
Yeah, I think the same... I'm from Spain and to another person of Argentina I say that here in Spain we call "piña" because is similar to the pine and "Ananás" is more like native original word. ☺️ I love the sound of "Ananás" o "Ananas" is more sweet to me 🤗

In French there are 2 ways to pronounce ananas: either ANANA or ANANASS but the word is written ANANAS.
Why
@@BigmanDogs What I mean is that the 2 are correct we can say the 2 there is no rule. Some say "Anana" because in the Ameridian language it is said "Anana" but since there is an "s" in the French word others say "ANANANASSE". Both are correct :). I hope you understood me 😅😅.
@@BigmanDogs Because it's France !
It depends if it's in plural or singular. I think that when it's in plural we pronounce it "Anana-s-" like "Des Anana-s-" and when it's in singular you pronounce it "Anana*S*" like "Un Anana*S*" such a hard language right ?
I'm a native French Speaker so first of all my English is kinda bad (I speak for myself). And I don't know if all Frenchs have this pronunciation in this context.
th is wrong with my comment. When I wrote Anana-s- that's mean that you don't pronounce the "S" and when I wrote Anana*S* that's mean that you pronounce it.
Love these language comparison videos! These always inspire me 😃
These videos are my new favourite thing
Sorprendente en este tipo de vídeos, le ponen una bandera de España y es española de verdad !!! la Z existe !!! let's go !!
Esta serie de vídeos trata de "europeos". Todos los demás también lo son.
i love these comparision videos! but as a person from central-eastern europe, i would like to see someone here talking in any slavic language, it’s sometimes REALLY different, for example tea in polish is "herbata", so it could be fun to compare with
Herbata must be related to herb (and ört, in my native language). We say örtte ("herb tea") about camomille, peppermint and other "teas" that are not really from the tea plant.
I think German lady doesn't turn her microphone on like others.

@@DONNYLAI95 my brother I think you missed the point🗿
Actually Snow White was published by the Brothers Grimm in 1812 in Germany, as a collection of fairy tales.
It's original Low German title was Sneewittchen (or Schneeweisschen in High German), which became Schneewittchen later on.
In the same fairy tales collection you will also find Cinderella (Aschenputtel), Rapunzel, Hansel and Gretel, Little Red Riding Hood and many more.
Snow White is called Sneeuwwitje in Dutch, which I believe is very close to Low German. In fact, the Dutch called their language "Nederduits" up to the 19th century.
Why is someone’s microphone always turned off lol?

Me encanta esta serie ❤️ I love it so much ☺️ I would like to hear too a Russian or a Portuguese or from Norway or Sweden... Europe is a small continent but have a lot of different languages. It's funny to learn about all of them ☺️ Hugs from Spain 🇪🇸😘😘 (yeah, two kisses 😅)
In Persian we say Portugal to orange
@@empireiranpersian9875 I think it is the same in Arabic, Turkish, Greek, and Romanian. They all use some sort of derivative of Portugal for the word orange. I'm guessing the Portuguese sailors were responsible for distributing this fruit to most of those countries that those countries started associating the fruit with Portugal. The fruit is originally native to India, China, and Myanmar, and Portugal did have colonies in the former two.
@@empireiranpersian9875 😳 really? It's very curious ☺️ As we say in Spain "you will never go to bed without knowing one more thing" ☺️
Finally they put a French girl who looks *interested* and also seems nice.
Finalement, il ont trouvé une Française sympathique qui a au moins l'air interessée!!!!
Seeing this as someone who speaks dutch, I relate to german the most. The words are very similar!!
In my mother tounge Marathi(Indian language) we call Orange "Naranga" very similar to Spanish and for pineapple we have exact same word as French and German "Ananas". I think these words for fruits come from very ancient proto Indo European language thats why they feel so similar and are not altered even after thousands of years.
No, Ananas is actually an Amerindian rather than an Indo-European word.
I would love to see a Slavic language family represented there, and the ensuing chaos.
Dude, just if they had put spanish people from different regions of spain would have been chaos too. Like, in most of spain " prestar" is " to lend something" , but in asturias, for example " prestar" means " to like something".

At 6:30 It is « blanCHE » not « blanc »
i've noticed the subtitles when the spanish girl talks are a bit off sometimes
Pineapple is a South American fruit, and the word ananas comes from Tupi language. Spanish piña and English pine are from Latin.
I believe the pineapple comes from the Amazon Forest and the Portuguese brought the fruit to Europe but it is funny because the name in Portuguese is Abacaxi.. nothing to do with the names in the other languages...
Abacaxi comes from Tupi (a common indigenous language in what is now Brasil), literally meaning “fruit with a strong, pleasant smell”, while ananás comes from Guaraní (another common indigenous language with a lot of connections to Tupi) and means “good fruit”. Ananás was, for whatever reason, adopted first, while abacaxi was only adopted in Portuguese around the independence of Brazil, and thus never ended in Portugal.
Ananás is used in Brazilian Portuguese for the wilder, less sweet and commercial variants of the fruit, while abacaxi is used in Portugal due to commercial influence from Brasil.
This, that's why in most latin america we use Ananá instead of Piña like in Spain
7:45 Cinderella is actually french :))
Yes, her french/original name Cendrillon come from Cendre (ash) since she was all cover in ash dust from cleaning the fireplace.
No, the story of Cinderella was first told by the ancient Greeks, who said she had Egyptian origins. It is part of the tradition of many cultures and was widespread in southern Europe, in fact it was part of the oral tales of Greece, Italy and France. The first to give her a name linked to the ash and a shoe was Gianbattista Basile in Lo Cunto de li Cunti, the "Pentamerone", in the story "La gatta cenerentola" ("cenere" means ash in Italian), then was made famous by Charles Perrault many years later, when he published his own version and censored many of the rough parts of the story. The French version is more famous than the older ones but the story of Cinderella has no French origins and was known for many centuries in Europe, Africa and even Asia.
I think in english "ananas" is called "pineapple" because of it looking kind of similar to a pinecone as well as "apple" being a word that was formerly used for fruits in general. Same for "Granatapfel" or "Apfelsine" in german, those being pomegranate and orange. Pomegranate even uses the french word for apple, "pomme". Potatoes in french being "pomme de terre" or in some german dialects "Erdapfel" is another example, both of these translate to "apple from the earth".
In all Slavic languages in Eastern Europe, beer is simply called “pivo”.
So in Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Russia and Bulgaria.
To clarify, 'ananas' comes from Brazilian tribes, where actually the fruit is originally from. In Spain it took the name for its similarity to pines (or piñas, in Spanish). That is the Latin word (pinna).

Somewhere, "Apfelsine" is crying at being left out...
German Nouns are all capitalized, so you have to write : Bier, Apfel, Orange, Ananas, Tee, Parfüm, Rose, Wein, Kaffee (error in subtitle), Schneewittchen, Aschenputtel,
It is actually Café when you're talking about the establishment. Like "Gehen wir ins Café?". It's only Kaffee when you're talking about the drink or the beans.

In brazilian portuguese,we have the word "pomo" for fruits in general,but its a very old word and its not used anymore.
perfume,café(with an open and strong "E") and laranja(with a "L") its almost the same.
In ancient classic latin, "pomus" means apple, while "fructus" is generic for fruit.
Pomo só é usado para algumas frutas, como a maçã ou similares como a pera.

btw, ananas is from Portugese or arabic, likely introduced to french/german via trade. many indo european languages including persian, urdu and hindi call it ananas as well.
its surprising to see orange is a naranja - in persian/urdu is also Narenj/Narang. No idea how it made it to spain
In the middle ages there was a sizeable population of arabic speakers in Spain, so maybe from that?
Ananas is from Tupi (a native American language formerly spoken in Brazil prior to the Portuguese colonization).
The audio is really low quality, they're sometimes really hard to understand.
Plz a video with all romance languages
2:42 Ananá is the indigenous name of that fruit, pineapple is only what the Spanish called it when they saw it, due to its similarity with the cone pines, also the British, Pine-apple, in Spanish it would be "piña manzana". The word ananá is of Guaraní (Language spoken in Paraguay and Brazil) origin, from the word naná naná, which means ‘perfume of perfumes’.
The English guy has the cutest smile
In Spanish is "Blanca Nieves" not "Blanco como la nieve" that's a completely different thing
I am surprised, In India in Hindi language for Pineapple we say 'Ananas' (exact same as french) and for orange we say 'Narangi'(Close to Spanish) 🤷♂️
In Spanish there are some words which are very similar to hindi maybe they have taken it from Sanskrit
Ananas comes from the Tupi word "nanas." Pineapples are endemic to South Brazil and Paraguay, and the Spanish and Portuguese conquistadors probably gave that word to the rest of the Old World, though apparently they forgot to adopted themselves. In Argentina, we also say ananá for pineapple instead of piña.
@@lissandrafreljord7913 But in India the word in Hindi 'Ananas' comes from the predecessor of hindi i.e which is Sanskrit. And sanskrit and older than than many countries in the world around (1700-1200 BC) Maybe we had same words but we didn't knew about existence of each other.
@@vibhassingh16 What word in Sanskrit are you specifically referring to that is connected to ananas? I'm pretty sure India probably got the word for pineapple from the Portuguese sailors, who probably introduced that fruit to India. The name of the fruit comes from the natives of South America.
@@lissandrafreljord7913 Columbus encountered the pineapple in 1493 on the Leeward island of Guadeloupe. He called it piña de Indes, meaning "pine of the Indians", and brought it back with him to Europe, thus making the pineapple the first bromeliad to leave the New World.
So, that is how ananas came to India because it is named after Indians. 😑😂
I miss the French and English from last time
There is a great variety of words in today's show to highlight how many words are similar and many are wildly different across different languages. I do think that it is interesting that there is Rose (the flower) Rose' (the wine) and Rose (the pink-ish color, that is halfway between red and magenta on the HSV color wheel). I was surprised to learn that the 1812 Grimm, Cinderella story was not the first with that storyline. The first recorded story featuring a Cinderella-like figure dates to Greece in the sixth century BCE. In that ancient story, a Greek courtesan named Rhodopis has one of her shoes stolen by an eagle, who flies it all the way across the Mediterranean and drops it in the lap of an Egyptian king.
Aschenputtel : Being Spain boy I laughed because puttel sounds similar to Spanish word "Puta" or b1tch in English
Claudia is so hot..
Ohhh ananas is Hindi word and naranga to narangi is orange colour in Hindi
Could you do Dutch or Flemish as well??
OK I will try

It's all so similar because we have here only 2 languages families. You should ask someone from slavic or nordic country, then it will be more enjoyable
Except that most nordic countries also speak Germanic languages (Iceland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway), and there are already two Germanic languages in this video (English and German), so it really wouldn't add that much. But I agree in terms of potentially asking a Slavic language speaker to partake, maybe even someone who speaks a Uralic language like Hungarian or Finnish.
@@Tackself You're right, also i thought that they could ask someone from Middle East coutries like Turkey
Sometimes the subtitles in spanish are wrong for example Snow White is Blancanieves not “Blanca como la nieve”

Everyone uses ananas except english and spanish.
Brazil uses another indigenous word, abacaxi.
Why didn‘t the German Girl have a Micro ?
Ananas comes from South American native languages where the fruit comes from. The Portuguese imported the word to Europe. It's kind of strange that the Spanish don't use it.
Ohh I’m Portuguese and I had no idea. It’s quite interesting how languages evolved. Like tea, we say it chá because Portugal went to China and started using that word while the other countries in the video all have a similar word to tea.
Spaniards brought Pimentón to Europe but in the rest of the languages of Europe they call it paprika which is Hungarian… this things happened
@@BeaA.26 There is the theory that you guys got into the "cha" group because you got tea via water route. Everywhere else in Europe tea was received by land route (silk road) which is why they all belong to the "t" group.
(Every language's word for tea in the world either uses "cha" or "t" somehow (as far as I kmow), which is why I was talking about groups.)
In the countries that we speak Spanish in South America it is hardly used either, only the Argentines, here in Chile at least we call it "Piña"
You should never give Germans a microphone... well done here

In Spanish, beer can also be called "birra", and about the "ananás" comment, it means pineapple both in European Portuguese (not in Brazil, there they say "abacaxi" I think) and Italian as well.
By the way, there could be a shorter way of saying pineapple in English, it would be "pine" but it isn't used to differentiate one kind and the other. We called pine to both pine and pineapple in Catalan and Spanish, with the same pronunciation but different spelling: "pinya" (Catalan) / "piña" (Spanish).
Oh! And about the cafe/cafeteria, both in Catalan and Spanish we would also say "bar" or "granja", the bars here are quite different, they serve alcohol as well, but those aren't like pups, minors can go too, because they serve menues, tapas, coffee, ice-cream, juice, beers... And a "granja" would be the same thing but without serving any alcoholic beverage. We also have some pups.
So, we might say: "let's go to the bar to drink some coffee" and that would be perfectly normal.
Best regards from Barcelona.
In Argentina we also say ananá for pineapple. I believe they do the same in Uruguay and Paraguay. Pineapples are originally native to South Brazil and Paraguay, and the indigenous people there called it "nanas," hence why the name ananas in German and French. In Argentina a piña is a punch, as in a fist punch. Lol.
Yeah, I think the same... I'm from Spain and to another person of Argentina I say that here in Spain we call "piña" because is similar to the pine and "Ananás" is more like native original word. ☺️ I love the sound of "Ananás" o "Ananas" is more sweet to me 🤗
