Do you know the origin of a certain word? :)

I received this message from my dear friend in college yesterday afternoon. It talks about the origin of the word "CHURVA". For Filipinos out there, I know you're very much familiar about this word.*hehehehe* At first, I thought it was just a "Gay Lingow" (a.k.a. Gays-originally-made-language). I am caught to always using this word, "CHURVA", especially when I don't know anymore what to say or if I am lost of the exact "right words" to say. hehe... Here's what I found out through my friend's message: "CHURVA has its etymology from the Greek word CHEORVAMUS meaning "for lack of the right word to say or in place of something you want to express but you cannot verbalize."I never thought that such "street-made" word has a Greek origin. *hehe* --- How about you? Do you have any word that you know the origin? Share it here!:)
