Prove? Anyway, a lot of those words come from Nahuatl which is an indigenous language from the Uto-Aztec family. How do I know? The part where I was an undergrad archaeologist who went to Mexico for research a couple times. You can also just look it up pretty easily. Someone linked to it in this post even.

But then wouldn't like 90% of English just come from Proto-Indo-European? Since that's where most of French, Latin, Greek, Spanish, Germanic, Celtic... comes from?
