Etruscan Loanwords in English

The Etruscans were a civilization living in central and northern Italy in early antiquity. They had a profound influence on Roman culture. Their language, unrelated to any other known language, remains little understood. Nevertheless, a number of Latin words is thought to be derived from Etruscan; some of these later entered the English language. Beware: no word in this quiz has a certain etymology; other hypotheses exist for most of them. Also, even if some of these words come from Etruscan, some of them may, in turn, be borrowings from other languages, especially Greek.
