Origin of Malay Words

A few months ago, I was researching for an article about Jawi and the Malay Language for The Brunei Times when I came across this list of words. I did not realise that Bomba was a Portuguese word (what are we doing with a Portuguese language?) and that katil was a Tamil word. aksi - action (from Dutch actie) almari - cupboard (from Portuguese armário) anggur - grape (from Persian انگور/angur)
