My Greek friends also told me that they use "camisa" for shirt and "pantalones" for trousers. What was the common language that Arabic and Greeks, etc derived from?

Lanuage families

Comment

Greek is an Indo-European language with a very long written tradition - perhaps more than 34 centuries.

Arabic is a Semitic language, part of the large Afroasiatic language family. Written Arabic dates from the 6th century AD.

There has been a hypothesis that there is a relationship between Indo-European and Semitic languages, but this hypothesis is not generally accepted. Thus, a common origin for Indo-european and Semitic is not suggested.

That does not mean that words from one language do not appear in another, unrelated language. That may be a manifestation of trade, close proximity, migration, and other reasons. The Moorish conquest of the Iberian peninsula explains many words of Arabic origin in Spanish. The Arabic language influence was not uniform throughout the Iberian peninsula, thus some of the early Spanish dialects show more Arabic influence than others.

The Wikipedia article, "Arabic language influence on the Spanish language has a long list of Spanish words with Arabic roots. There is Arabic influence in other languages, such as Latin and Greek, as well.

Camisa is a word of Celtic origin. The word made it to Latin as camisia and
in Italian it is camicia and in Greek it is poukámiso or παντελόνι.
Pantalón is a word of Italian origin, pantalone, as previously mentioned
and in Greek it is pantelóni or παντελόνι. Pants in English also comes from
the Italian word pantalone through French pantalon
