Because “bif” is pronounced the same as “beef” and “teck” is kinda similiar to “steak”, Beef in french seems to be Bœuf which checks out with my theory
(Note: it’s been a long time since i last talked in French ans i wouldn’t be able to anymore lol)
Bistek in Spanish for Beefsteak here always makes me laugh.
Learned in French class the word for roast beef is… rosbif.

It’s the other way around. French bifteck comes from english beefsteak.

In Polish it’s “befsztyk” (pronounced “beff-shtick”)
