Meaning of whisky by furoya





furoya

whisky
  15

It is an anglicism for an alcoholic distillate of grains. This liquor has a Spanish version of its name as güisqui, but it is hardly used. English borrowed it from Scottish Gaelic uisge beatha or uiske beatha, or perhaps from Irish uisce beatha, although the origin of all seems to be the Latin aqua vitae ("water of life").
