1) the game "padel" comes from the same ethimology, of course
2) "panna" in Italian means "cream", meanwhile "panno" means "fabric", "cloth". Now I've just read your graphic and I'm curious to know from where they come from.
Je slides zijn altijd super-interessant, erg bedankt!
'Padel', via Spanish 'pádel', come from English 'paddle', whose origin is unknown. It may come from Medieval Latin 'padula', 'padela', which might indeed stem from 'patella' via some other language.
'Panna' comes from 'panno', the cloth used in dairying, from Latin 'pannus'.
Thank you once again.
