You've heard the words orange, butcher, so-and-so, blue, sofa and headache, but do you know what they have in common? They're all of Arabic origin. Arabic had a huge influence on the Portuguese and Spanish languages because of the Moors' occupation of the Iberian Peninsula. For more than 700 years, the Moors ruled almost all of the territory that is now Spain and Portugal. The very existence of Portugal is largely due to the Christians' struggle to reconquer these territories, and to do so, they had the help of Geraldo Sem Pávor and Santiago Matamoros, among others. Have you heard of them? No? Then come with me and I'll tell you this story.
