The etymology here suggests that a word like veranda has been kicking around in the Indo-European family since before Indo-Iranian split from Latin, which is difficult to believe. The page on veranda indicates, rather, that the word hopped from Portuguese to Hindi, whence it returned to Europe in English. If anyone knows the facts, perhaps these two etymologies could be brought to agreement. Davidwbulger (talk) 01:42, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
