In Hindustani, an additional word ''Āchār'', is used for pickles, along with other native Hindi words. Āchār is a loanword of [[Persian language|Persian]] origin, entered popular use as the Hindustani term for pickles under [[Islam|Islamic rule]]. However, pickles in India are totally different from vinegar-based pickles in the Middle East.<ref name="Madani1993">{{cite book |author=Mohsen Saeidi Madani |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=AqdJ7LlfVWUC&pg=PA153 |title=Impact of Hindu Culture on Muslims |publisher=M.D. Publications Pvt.
