Also I know this is done and over with but I just realized "accomodate" and "commodity" are cognates most English speakers would be familiar with. They go back to the same Latin/PIE root, and have a related meaning.
Spanish has "incomodar" which has the same "make uncomfortable" meaning and is a common word (we also have "confortable" too); it's interesting how in English that fell out of common use in favor of the "comfort" root. The "toilet" meaning "commode" acquired is unfortunate.

Languages are weird sometimes.

English is the C++ of verbal languages: full of weird syntactical bullshit, a huge Feature set noone actually uses more than 5% of, a huge set of undefined behaviors and unexpected edge cases, and a community that swears its the superior language for every kind of application.

That's probably because it makes you "comfortable" after a visit
