In indonesian, originally from malay language we have verb "pegang" or "memegang" that always used when we grab something and hold it on our hand. I do not know is that a loan word from portuguese or not. But we have also "Mentega (butter)" from Manteiga. "Keju (cheese)" from queijo. And etc
When u buy something then u touch in that and carry for u so u take/grab/pick up that but when that is in your possession u get that. I'm Brazillian !!
