Can't imagine that /tricu/ comprises >shrubs, bushes and that kind of smaller plants, especially >those annual herbaceous plants (Germ.: Stauden). For eggplant, I'd use a fu'ivla. The only descriptive name I know of for it is "eggplant" itself (which properly refers to the white kind, Solanum esculentum); all others are variants of Sanskrit "vatinganah": badinjan, aubergine, brinjal, S. melongena, melenzana, mad apple (misinterpretation of "melenzana" as "mala insana"). Pick any you want and add "spaty" or "gruty" to the beginning of it. phma ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Would you like to save big on your phone bill -- and keep on saving more each month?
