Romanian translation:dovlecel sau...
Explanation:
In engleza "squash" trimite la vreo patru specii de Curcubitacee: maxima, mixta, moschata si pepo.
Pe wikipedia, in romana, doua din ele au serii sinonimice bune:
- Curcubita pepo - pepene galben, boşar, cantaloş, cantalup, caune, gălboi, harbuz, himunic, ieură, popone, vleg, zămos
- Curcubita maxima - dovleac, bostan, curcubeată, lubă, bostan, curcubetă, dulete, ludaie.
Poate reusesti niste transmutari...

Asker: Textul zice aşa: "amerindienii cultivau: maize, squash and pumpkin". What a stump. Cred că e timpul de dus la culcare că mă împiedic de toate cioatele.
