>The word "canteen" has a curious history. It is perhaps the only word in our language which, originally English, passed into
a foreign tongue, and was afterwards taken back in a modified form.-- As originally spoken by the Saxon it was simply a tin
can, but the Gaul, as his wont, placing the noun before the adjective, and pronouncing the letter i as e, brought it out as
can tin, pronounced canteen. Adopting a thousand other French military terms, the dull Englishman took back his own original
word in a new shape without any inquiries on the subject, and hence we now say canteen instead of tin can.
