"Ballet originated in France." I'm not a big fan of disputes, but I beg to differ. Ballet was originally invented in Italy as a form of ballroom dancing of its time. It was later imported in France for royal entertainment.
Words like "sushi" from Japan, "baguette" from France, "ballet" from Italy, and "kangaroo" from Australia are examples of words that originate from other countries.
"Originate" means to come or to have its origin from a particular source or place. It refers to the beginning or starting point of something.
