What about Baptism?
DEFINITION:
 
 

 
A Greek word that was made into an English word NOT translated into English (i.e. transliterated).  The original word means immersion or dipping.  A very common word even more so than our English word immersion.  But in The Word of God it means so much more.  SEE below.
