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.

The question above is an excellent example of a word analogy. A word analogy is usually used to indicate the comparison of elements containing similarities in their definition. For the case above, it establishes the industry to its product thus the answer would be the third choice "cars."

Either a semicolon or a comma will adequately separate the parts of a compound sentence.
aliina [53]
Yes, but when using a comma the 2nd part of the sentence typically can't stand alone. On the other hand, semicolons are used to connect two related sentences that can stand alone.
