00:00:00.900 --> 00:00:07.650
<v Teodor Halvorsen>A short bonus. You keep sending us words, and one arrives more often than any other.

2
00:00:07.700 --> 00:00:14.250
<v Odile Marchetti>Yakamoz, from Turkish. Usually with a note: the reflection of the moon on the sea.

3
00:00:14.300 --> 00:00:18.850
<v Teodor Halvorsen>Which is lovely, and not quite right.

4
00:00:18.900 --> 00:00:29.350
<v Odile Marchetti>A listener in Izmir set us straight. Yakamoz is the glow in the water at night, when tiny sea creatures light up as you move your hand through it.

5
00:00:29.400 --> 00:00:38.050
<v Teodor Halvorsen>And in Istanbul, the moonlight on the sea had a name of its own: gümüşservi. Literally, a silver cypress.

6
00:00:38.100 --> 00:00:42.850
<v Odile Marchetti>So the lists folded two words into one.

7
00:00:42.900 --> 00:00:46.850
<v Teodor Halvorsen>Keep sending them. The address is on our about page.

8
00:00:46.900 --> 00:00:51.850
<v Odile Marchetti>Season two goes on in two weeks. Thanks for listening.
