Warum heißt Tee in manchen Ländern "Chai" oder "Cha"?

from 1000 Antworten

Das ist ein interessantes Phänomen und erzählt viel über die Kolonialgeschichte. Tee heißt auf Persisch Chai, ähnlich klingt der Name im Arabischen oder im Türkischen – Çay. Aber Chay heißt er auch in Russland, der Ukraine und in den Balkanstaaten. Doch dann gibt es plötzlich eine Sprachgrenze. Auf Deutsch heißt er eben Tee, auf Englisch "tea". Auf Französisch, Spanisch, aber auch auf Schwedisch und Finnisch wird das Getränk zwar unterschiedlich geschrieben, aber überall mehr oder weniger immer als "Tee" ausgesprochen. So lassen sich fast alle Länder der Welt in zwei Schubladen sortieren. In der einen spricht man das Getränk "Te" oder so ähnlich aus. In der anderen ist es eine Variante von Chay, Cay oder Cha. Das ursprüngliche chinesische Wort war aber das gleiche, so erklärt es der Kieler Tee-Historiker Martin Krieger.
