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

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.
