The word marjoram came from the Medieval Latin word morjorana to the Old French Majorane.  It then became marjoram in late Middle English.

Marjoram tastes like a smoother, milder version of oregano. Oregano can be substituted for it, but you'll want to use less.

Marjoram and oregano belong to the Origanum genus, which includes 54 species naturally occurring in and around the Mediterranean basin. Both marjoram and oregano have become naturalized in parts of North and South America, probably due to kitchen gardens popularized in many DIY gardening and home cooking magazines.
