Where this word comes from

Internationalism, based on French Algérie (“Algeria”), from Alger (“Algiers”) and the country-name suffix -ie (“country-name suffix”). The city name is ultimately derived from Arabic اَلْجَزَائِر (al-jazāʔir, “the islands”), referring to four islands formerly lying off the city and later joined to the mainland. Parallel international adaptations include Norwegian Nynorsk Algerie, Danish Algeriet, Swedish Algeriet, German Algerien, Dutch Algerije and English Algeria.
