in sanskrit is panca. in gipsy is pinda as in pindus. why must everything have greek origin? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.28.14.62 (talk) 08:46, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
It may be nerve racking but this is what it is... and this article is not referring the Pythagoreans also... W5ry3 (talk) 22:03, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
All it means is that the English word has its origins in Greek - means nothing to the non-European languages. Sumerian or Hungarian or Chinese is just as valid for the roots of the word in those languages. I'm sure the Maya have a word for this very common symbol.50.111.2.6 (talk) 23:55, 4 May 2019 (UTC)
