ELI5: Why, in the English language, meat has a distinct name for each animal it comes from
It seems that most languages out there just go by a variant of <animal>-meat when referring to meat from specific animals, but in the English language, they have distinct names (beef, pork, veal) that do not derive from the animals it comes from. What do these names mean exactly?
