1. Hamburguer
History
The term hamburger originally derives from Hamburg, Germany's second largest city,
from which many people emigrated to the United States. In High German, Burg means
fortified settlement or fortified refuge; and is a widespread component of place names.
Hamburger can be a descriptive noun in German, referring to someone from Hamburg
(compare London → Londoner) or an adjective describing something from Hamburg.
Similarly, Frankfurt and wiener, names for other meat-based foods, are also used in
Germany and Austria as descriptive nouns for people and as adjectives for things from
the cities of Frankfurt and Wien (Viena), respectively. The term "burger" is associated
with many different types of sandwiches similar to a (ground beef) hamburger, using
different meats.
The Hamburger is named after Hamburg, Germany.
