Taiwanese has words that come from [[Hølaan-guo|Dutch]], [[Portugal-guo|Portuguese]], and [[Sepangaa-gie|Spanish]] via its history (see [[Hølaan ee Formosa]]). Aside from placenames (like [[Samtiaw-kag]] and [[Huokuix-kag]]), most western words might be from English via Japanese (see [[Taiwanese words from English]]).
