Etymology
The word 'anorak' originates from the Greenlandic Inuit language, where 'anoraq' refers to a traditional Inuit garment made of caribou or seal skin. The term was adopted into English in the early 20th century to describe a similar waterproof garment worn by explorers and outdoor enthusiasts. Over time, the anorak became popular as a practical outerwear choice for protection against cold and wet weather conditions.
