Hmmm....  There's an interesting thought.  Involving words of non-English 
origin.  It would be educational to compile some of the medieval words that give 
us all fits in other languages.  I know I've learned a lot from listening when 
Gwen Cat and Ranvaig discuss the German recipes. 

I might be able to get a few of the Spanish ones IF we could use the RAE and 
IF it was up at the time.  I had a devil of a time with some costuming 
translation that I was working on last week and couldn't get into the older RAE 
dictionaries for a while.
