Question 2
2.1 i) Explanation of Borrowing Words
According to my understanding, borrowing words from one language to another is a
linguistic process where one language adopts words from another language. This often
occurs due to cultural exchange, trade, colonization, or other forms of contact between
different linguistic communities. The borrowed words, also known as loanwords, may
undergo modifications in pronunciation, spelling, and meaning to fit the phonological
and grammatical rules of the borrowing language.
