What language does tattoo originate from?

The word "tattoo" originates from the Tahitian word "tatau".

While the practice of tattooing is ancient and widespread across the globe, the term "tatau" was introduced to the English language through European explorers who encountered it in the Polynesian islands, particularly Tahiti.
