Escargot in France - by Frenglish Thoughts <br />http://frenglishthoughts.com/a-snaily-tale/ <br /> <br />Escargot is the French word for snail. It is related to Occitan escagaròl and Catalan cargol, which, in turn, may derive from a pre-Roman word *karakauseli. Similarly, Spanish and Portuguese use the term caracol.
