Already learning some interesting things:
- The Papiamentu word "kunuku" comes from the Spanish word "conuco", which is a farming technique that involves a large pile of fertile soil in which root vegetables, mainly yuca, are grown.
- The English word "cannibal" comes from the Spanish name "caribal" for the Carib peoples, who were labeled as "bloodthirsty" when they fought against enslavement by the Spanish.
