Answer:
1. Maritime (French) comes from the Latin word maritimus, which means "of the sea," so the meaning hasn't evolved much.
2. Marina (Roman) is the feminine form of the Latin Marius which was an Old Roman given name meaning “of the sea” from the Latin “mare”.
3. Maroon (US/UK / Australia /məˈroʊn) is a brownish crimson color that takes its name from the French word marron, or chestnut. "Marron" is also one of the French translations for "brown".
4. The word marinate (french) is directly derived from the French word 'mariner' meaning 'to pickle in brine'. That French word comes from the Latin 'marinus' meaning 'of the sea'. Marinate was first recorded in English sometime in the 1640s.
5. Historically, marines (French) serve as a navy's ground troops. In fact, the word "marine" is the French word for sea, which may be why the French military historically called English troops — who all had to arrive by sea — "marines."
6. “Marinara” (Italy) translates to “seafaring”—or colloquially to “sailor style” or “mariner style.” It was given the name marinara not because it was once a seafood-style sauce, but because it was the preferred meal of Italy's merchants during long expeditions at sea.
7. Maroon.
8. The rest has something to do with the "sea" and "marines".
