Indian Masalas (ingredients) and their English counterparts

Here are some Indian ingredients which are necessary in any Indian cooking along with their English appropriates. I think while writing any recipes, it is necessary to let all of you know about it. I am writing here only a few of some must needed terms. Hope to post more in my next attempts.
Basmati -> Long Grained Rice
Paneer -> Cottage Cheese
Garam Masala -> Mixture of Black Pepper, Cloves and Cardamoms used wither whole or powdered
Ghee -> Clarified butter
Jaiphal -> Nutmeg
Javatri, Jaitri -> Mace
Kesar -> Safforn
Kishmish -> Raisins
I will post more tomorrow.
