"My love for this book is immense and I want to shout out to the world about it. 🥺

Also very interesting bit of how calico came from Calicut. My understanding was Kozhikode became Calicut cuz the invaders(Portugese was it?) called it so. So the origin of the word in English could be not direct? Hmm gotta find out. Also interesting how tufan & tarjama came from Arabic. Didn't guess chitti was Marathi either." — Nov 02, 2022 12:42PM
