Spelled the Same
Language brain teasers are those that involve the English language. You need to think about and manipulate words and letters.

|Yes that's right. I guessed on "idiot" and I suppose that both of these words comes from latin. |

|Taxi is an english word that is used by other languages for convenience (makes it much easier at airports and train stations to get around). The letter 'x' is a giveaway -it is not a normal letter in these other languages.|
There are lots of foreign words adopted into other languages without change. In english, any word that ends in 'et' such as 'ballet' is really a french word that was adopted by english when no english word was already inplace.
