⌂Word origin and word building

From burnsides, a style named after the American general Ambrose Burnside, whose name was later turned round to give sideburns.

यह शब्द burnsides से बना है, जो अमेरिकी जनरल Ambrose Burnside के नाम पर रखी गई एक शैली थी, और बाद में शब्द के दोनों हिस्से उलटकर sideburns बन गया।
