Dialect and vocabulary
Aug. 1st, 2013 07:24 pmI've been listening to back episodes of the radio show A Way with Words, which is all about dialect, etymology, and whatever else that has to do with linguistics that asked by the listeners.
On two of them, they've dealt with a particular recipe/food, which apparently has as many different names as there are people. And of all the names the show's hosts listed, they didn't list the name that I know it by!Which means, of course, that they got it wrong.
So...if you have a name for the dish that is made by cutting or tearing a hole in a piece of bread, then putting it into a frying pan and cracking an egg into it and frying the whole thing up, what is it? And what region are you from/where did you get it?
( Cut for my name for it )
