Hmm I just fucked an orange

its called arancia in italian i believe and probably similar in other foreign languages and english language is basically a bunch of borrowed words so we took arancia and turned it into orange, which then the color got its name orange because of the fruit. supposedly, thats what history tells us but i think the jews made it confusing on purpose to make it easier to trick us
