English is a crazy language!

English is a crazy language. Why? 


HAMBURGER-  There is no ham in a hamburger

EGGPLANT- There is no egg in the eggplant 

PINEAPPLE- There is no apple in a pineapple 

FRENCH FRIES-  They were not invented in France

BOXING RINGS are square 

GUINEA PIG is not a pig from Guinea 




Do you know the meaning of these words? 


Eggplant                                             French fries                       


Guinea Pig                                                     Boxing ring

    Its a funny and curious article. I like eggplants but i didn't know its name till now. It happens a lot of times that you speak or read in English but there are some words that you never see until you look at them in a dictionary.
