According to the French dictionary Petit Robert, it "perhaps" originally came from Italian, "Bombagia", meaning cotton.

Ref: 1220; o. i., p.-ê. de l'it. bombagia « coton 
Note: Agreed, the word beige most recently came from French.  I went too far back to 1220!

The correct answer is French.

The word beige (which represents a color similar to the color of sand) most recently comes from French. The English language contains a lot of words borrowed from other languages, and French is one of the biggest 'inspirations.' Although it is unknown what the very first language of origin of the word beige is, the most recent is definitely French.

Which word in the poem “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” by William Wordsworth most clearly represents its subject?
Ghella [55]
Hello there!

The question appears to asking about what represents the poem's subject.
First, we can imply what our general topic by the thesis. The thesis is usually the first sentence in a story, and is restated in the conclusion.

The first sentence is "I wandered lonely as a cloud." and the rest of the story details the poem's thesis.

This is clearly highlighting the cloud as the subject.

Your answer is A.) Cloud.

I hope this helps!
