This week, on foot of a conversation I had with my sister about the French term for potatoes, I've explored the evolution of the words fruit, apple and potato. From French to Farsi, Russian to Zulu, Spanish to Slovakian, Lithuanian to Italian - and German, Austrian, Irish, Spanish, Swiss, Polish, and Portuguese, no plate has been left empty after harvest season. Dig in and enjoy! <a href="https://bit.ly/potatomapworld" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Potato Map Source</a><hr> Hosted on Acast.

Unconventional Irish Cures

Hiberno Stories is a quirky show hosted by Christine Mullaney from Ireland. Through storytelling in Hiberno (Irish) English, Christine shares whatever the wind blows through her and stirs in her soul to speak about. Tune in for stories about Ireland's ancient Gods and Goddesses, learn new Irish words from our myth and folklore, pick up neuroculture, mental health, and mindset nuggets, and whatever else comes up along the way. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
