ETYMOLOGY
 
Bistro Bistro Image

Etymologists argue on the origin of the word Bistro, but the most common explanation is that it comes from the Russian language: быстро (bystro) meaning "fast" (in French "vite"
 
This would have emerged during the Russian occupation of Paris in 1814, when the Russian soldiers would demand their food to be served fast. The word appeared again after the Russian revolution in 1917, when many migrated to Paris and became taxi drivers.
 
Burgundy
 
French translation: Bourgogne

Origin: Burgonde

History: The Burgondes were from Germanic origin. Following the Roman Empire collapse - at the end of the Fifth Century - the Burgondes established a vast kingdom which included today's France's Burgundy region. The name changed from Burgonde to Bourgogne, when their kingdom was integrated in the one of the Francs in 534.

Regnum Burgundiæ: Royaume de Burgondie / Royaume de Bourgogne / Burgundy Kingdom. 
 
Bordeaux
 
French meaning: 
Bord: "on the edge of" 
Eaux:  "waters"

 

History

Famous for its wine region, Bordeaux is a port on the West Coast of France. It was originally named  "Burdigala" for "Burd" and "Gala" meaning "Cove" and "Swamp".
