Yeah, Naum is right. I learned that in Dan Browns newest book, The Lost Symbol, where he writes that the tie originally came from a group of bandits who tie some cloth around their neck before going into battle.. :p

Heh. I'm pretty sure as I had a damn french oral :(, one of the role plays was: 'What will you wear?'.

Yep, sorry I was getting confused. In my prep I used attache and got told it was crevate, but was getting confused which was right haha.

Tie in French is Cravate, but there are also many words of tie in the French like Attache, Entrave. Anyways it was fun to translate a word and also came to know that there are so many words of the word tie in French.
