Is there another word for prune than "pruneau" And what are "gombos" and
"coing"?Found several with hooney (different spelling than I'm used to), but
unless there is also a different word for almonds, haven't found it yet.
In what language? In some African tongues gombo supposedly refers to okra, 
it's where we get the word "Gumbo".... Maybe the word transfered?
