The word for carrot varies significantly across languages. In Germanic languages like Swedish ('morot'), German ('Karotte'), and Dutch ('wortel'), the connection to the root is clear. Romance languages such as French ('carotte'), Italian ('carota'), and Spanish ('zanahoria') trace their origins to Latin carota, with Spanish also influenced by Arabic. Finnish ('porkkana') and Turkish ('havuç') have unclear etymologies, while Chinese '胡萝卜' (húluóbo) suggests a historical import from the West.
