This wasn't an English word - it's derived from the Persian payjama, and we took it from the Hindustani version.

Almost all English words are derived from other languages. That doesn't stop them being English words.

It was mean to be a provocation, in a joke style, for Brits, but looks like people got me too serious. I don’t care much about how people write colo(u)r, i write it color, since that’s how its written in Visual Studio :) and in school i never did learn English – so i adopt to what is mostly used in my environment. Yet still there is no U in color :P

It is not English word. It can be "English loan word" but it can not be "English word". English term for a word. Ah, it's confusing me. I quit. ;P

Certainly not! I carry mine with me wherever I go, as I do with my pills!
