File:Chocolate.jpg chocolate (confectionery)
Etymology [ ]
Often said to come from Template:Nah [[Category:Template:Nah derivations|Chocolate]] xocolātl (e.g. American Heritage Dictionary 2000) or chocolatl (e.g. dictionary.com 2006), which would be derived from xococ , bitter, and ātl , water, (with an irregular change of x to ch ). However, the form xocolatl is not directly attested, and chocolatl does not appear in Nahuatl until the mid-18th century. Dakin and Wichmann (2000) propose that the chocol- element refers to a special wooden stick used to prepare chocolate, and suggest the correct etymology to be chicolātl , a word found in several modern Nahuatl dialects.
In any case, the word chocolate reached English via Spanish .
