OP Hi,
I was looking for the origin of the words "aggression/aggressive". These words, when translated in Bengali (my native language), sound very similar to the original English words. In Bengali, they are translated as "Aa-gra-son/Aa-gra-see". I was once told that these Bengali words were derived from Sanskrit. But the similarity in pronunciation is quite surprising.
Thanks,
TK
