Apr 30, 2019 at 13:28 | comment | added | Darrel Hoffman | I recall that Coca Cola did a study which determined that "Coke" was the second most universally recognized word in the world, after "Okay", which prompted them to briefly release a beverage called "OK Soda", which was not very successful. Whether that universal recognition extends to "Coca Cola" and from there to just "cola" is up for debate. And whether the word qualifies as "Latin" is yet another debate. | |
