OK, all you word junkies, last night someone said they'd heard a word used
to describe the zone where fresh water meets salt water. I said "estuary"
and she said "No - a different word. Heard it in a documentary. It was a
pretty word. One word, not two."

There was wine involved in this discussion, so the word may not exist.
Begin
throwing words....NOW! :-)


Firth? Fjord?



Nope. And I don't know the answer, so this isn't a newsgroup quiz. It's out
there somewhere....
