#English word archipelago = Derived from the Italian arcipelago, used as a proper name for the Aegean Sea, itself perhaps a deformation of the Greek Αιγαίον Πέλαγος. Later, usage shifted to refer to the Aegean Islands since the sea has a large number of islands.
Way too complex, detached and weird.
#Swedish word skärgård = Skär (skerry) + gård (yard). Skerry yard.
Much better.
