# you are incorrect, sir.
One, you're assumign that american adendums to english words holdfor all english speakers. Pants has held it's original meaning in all english speaking communities, bar the UK.

Two, English is a modern language, and anglosaxon derivative, SAE, with letter sadded like DNA from all the cross-pollenation of invasions and counterinvasions to France. The French oocupation of parts off England added new letters to the anglosaxon form (Q, K), and much of the word forms in english are derivative from european words. Oddly, in Irish, many peoplassuming words ar eanglicised whn in fact the opposite holds; Carr, meaning 'Car' in the modern sense originally meant 'Cart', and english took the meaning on board along with many older celtic words, as the anglo saxon settlers took celtic land. The origins of enlgish are as much a give and take with surrounding language forms as anything, assuming primacy based on speaker-count is a fallacy

# can you honestly say
that every word in the english language was "inventented" by the english?

It's a wildly simplistic and inaccurate understanding of language. Most languages are just rarified amalgamations of the languages that surround and precede them. It would be arrogant to think otherwise - a cultural imperialism.

English didn't invent all the words they use, no-one's claiming that, but all of the influences you're talking about come from before the language was taken to America, rendering that huge post a bit pointless really.

# Erm...
doesn't the Elizabethan English term "Pantaloons" come into it somewhere?
(, Mon 17 Oct 2005, 12:40, archived)
# eeenteresting
You're right! According to dictionary.com, one root is

[Short for pantaloon.]
Word History: One would not expect a word for a modern article of clothing to come ultimately from the name of a 4th-century Roman Catholic saint, but that is the case with the word pants. It can be traced back to Pantaleon, the patron saint of Venice. He became so closely associated with the inhabitants of that city that the Venetians were popularly known as Pantaloni. Consequently, among the commedia dell'arte's stock characters the representative Venetian (a stereotypically wealthy but miserly merchant) was called Pantalone, or Pantalon in French. In the mid-17th century the French came to identify him with one particular style of trousers, a style which became known as pantaloons in English. Pantaloons was later applied to another style that came into fashion in the late 18th century, tight-fitting garments that had begun to replace knee breeches. After that pantaloons was used to refer to trousers in general. The abbreviation of pantaloons to pants met with some resistance at first; it was considered vulgar and, as Oliver Wendell Holmes put it, “a word not made for gentlemen, but ‘gents.’” First found in the writings of Edgar Allan Poe in 1840, pants has replaced the “gentleman's word” in English and has lost all obvious connection to Saint Pantaleon.

So it varies from the rest of the english speaking countries perhaps in adoptation of a different style.
