Well, the word 'tortilla' is foreign... How then would you say "I would like a corn tortilla rather than a flour one to make my enchiladas for dinner"? There is no direct translation of what a tortilla or enchilada is, but wouldn't you agree that those two Mexican origin words are common enough in America to be valid words in Scrabble? Or even "taco" or "salsa"? Or should we take out about half of our vocabulary because the words are of foreign origin?
