Before drafting and after
#10
I was about to say, it's a beret in english. But it's actually french. But then it occurred to me, that's not true, it is an english word taken from the french. It's technically an english word, it'd be like saying "well, there is no english word for a tortilla, it's actually spanish." If we did that to most languages we'd find very few original words, it's all latin and germanic and gaelic and so forth.
