While I understand the similarity with the latin languages, as it shares that origin, it is its own word. The actual word is being used, not words that sound alike, as it was exported by colonial powers. I don't have to have lived there to be aware of its use. Hell, anyone that read the post is now aware, there wasn't any confusion as to what was stated in the peace corps document.
