Portugal!
Yes, we all know that it is a country in south-east Europe.
It's a small and beautiful country — we all know that.
But what is the connection between Portugal and oranges?
Hmm?
What do you think?
Well, maybe Portugal has delicious oranges, but...
Many countries have them!
OK, just look at the picture — it says a lot!
Did you figure it out?
For a long time, I have been asking myself this question.
Why does Portugal mean orange in Arabic?
The word for 'orange' and Portugal is the same: 'البرتقال'.

It's a good question. I have heard that it might be because the Portuguese got oranges from China and introduced them to other parts of the world, including Arabic countries.
