Concrete in Different Languages

A map of Europe breaks down the word for concrete by language and etymology, so you can see how French béton traces back to Latin bitumen while English concrete comes from concretus. Spanish hormigón might be from formicare or a bread-crumb cake, Italian calcestruzzo is from calcis structio for limestone structure, Greek σκυρόδεμα means gravel-tied, Scottish cruaidhhtan comes from cruaidh for hard, and Icelandic steypa goes back to Old Norse
