Handy field reference guide: - Is it possible Indian restaurants like other cuisine were packaged for a non-Indian audience as much as an Indian audience? - Too many people faint at the sight of having to read and pronounce an Indian name, how might it go with something that isn’t short like naan, cha? Even with naan (which means bread), bread is added on to hear people say bread bread. Cha/chai is tea, and Indians live to hear people say tea tea. - In this way curry might be a common word added to dishes. - Next time, at an Indian restaurant, see if you can over hear any Indian guests who exclude the word curry from their sentence when ordering. - Maybe it’s worth asking Indian mothers if the word curry was used by them. - The etymology of curry is readily available. At most it’s a style of cooking (like bbq). - There’s actually over 500 languages in India, but they might have been all the same to the British, so let’s just call it all a curry. The only dish I can think is kadhi which is made with cooked yogurt. It’s not spelled or pronounced like curry. I hope that helps with the offence :)
