Many English words—even words related to everyday activities—have foreign origins. For example, some words relating to the activ

ity of boating come from other languages. The word schooner, which is a type of sailing ship, came from the Dutch language. Many nautical terms have Dutch origins because the Dutch were traders and merchants who sailed around the world, peddling their goods. The word gondola, which is a type of boat, is originally an Italian word. English speakers sometimes call boat races “regattas.” The word regatta comes from the Italian word regata. In France, in the United States, and in some other countries, it is a tradition to wish contestants bon chance, which means "good luck," before they start a race. Which country does the word gondola come from? A) France B) Italy C) Russia D) Spain
