Explanation: 1300 years ago (around the year 700 ac) the Muslim Umayyad Caliphate (was the second of the four major caliphates established after the death of Muhammad.) arrived into Spain, and between the years 711 and 784 they conquered the lands of the Visigothic kingdom of Hispania and established the territory known as Al-Andalus.
Because of this, in the spanish that we know today there is a big presence of Arabic-rooted words.
