Spaghetti is a type of pasta. Its name means "little strings" or "little twine" in Italian because that is what its shape resembles. Spagho is a related Italian word meaning "thread".

Broken down, the Italian name is derived from: Spagowhich means twine, Spaghetto which means little twine, and Spaghetti is plural for Spaghetto.

Pasta seems to have developed in more than one place independently... earlier in China. But Spaghetti as we know it definitely began in Italy.

Spaghetti originally came from China. I know hard to believe. Most people think that spaghetti first came from Italy but they are incorrect.
