Subject: Bergamot French? |
|
|
I was awaken 3 times over the course of the early morning, first hearing
“you are bergamot French”???, second time I woke heard just “bergamot”
and then the third time I woke just “bergamot “ again. I have no clue to it’s
meaning since there is no bergamot France only a bergamo Italy? And it’s
a citrus fruit.

Could it have been Huguenot French? According to Wiki, they were concentrated in the south and western parts of France.

Hello, and thank you ! That never crossed my mind! Some of my ancestors
were most definitely Huguenot French the other half were not sadly to
say. I come from the direct De Guise line. Nothing has changed in all these
generations it is still the same today. Those wanting power and control
and wealth and the others just wanting to have the freedom to choose
what is right for themselves and loved ones. Humanity never seems to
learn. Two houses always against each other. Thank you for the thoughts!
Take care!

Bergamot is another name for the Bee Balm plant (Monarda fistulosa) which I believe is native to North America

Bergamot is a plant...it's used in
earl Grey tea....
https://www.myearlgrey.com/articles/wh
at-is-bergamot/
complex and misunderstood fruit.
In fact, the bergamot is often
mistaken for citrus hystrix. More
commonly known as makrut lime
(formerly kaffir lime) or, drum roll
please, Thai bergamot!
That’s right. In Thailand, both citrus
fruits, while very different, go by
the same name. Don’t believe me? Just
type bergamot into Google translate,
the result comes back as makrud (also
known as makrut).
This muddlement is presumably due to
the name. And to a lesser degree, the
yellow and lime coloured rind. Two red
herrings that have likely earned many
an intern the chop.
Easy mistake to make, right? Well,
they are both citrus fruits. And they
share the bergamot name. But other
than the colour (and honestly, that’s
a stretch) they couldn’t be more
different.
Just look at the two side by side and
you’ll see that it’s quite easy to
distinguish between the different
fruits. Snip...
WHAT’S IN A NAME?
To further confuse things, the
etymology of the bergamot sends some
seriously mixed signals.
The bergamot orange (citrus bergamia)
comes from the Latin word bergamotta
in Italian and bergamote in French.
According to historians, the first
usage of these names dates back to the
late 17 century.
It’s thought that bergamot was named
after the Northern Italian town known
today as Bergamo. Prior to that, the
town was called Bergŏmum (in the
original Latin).
Seems simple enough so far. But wait.
The bergamot fruit’s origins go back
much further than that.
Before becoming a Roman municipality,
the ancient and mountainous town of
Bergomum was a Celtic settlement for
the Cenomani tribe.
Bergomum (Bergamo’s original name)
comes from the Celtic word brigant,
meaning high, lofty, elevated. Or, in
Ligurian, berg, meaning mountain.
Interestingly enough, berg (and its
meaning) is still used in the German
language today.
And there’s more.
TURKISH ORIGINS
Some say that the name bergamot name
evolved from the Ottoman Turkish word
beg-armudi meaning prince’s pear. Or,
bey-armudu and in Modern-day Turkish,
which translates to lord’s pear. While
bey-armut, another Turkish word of the
same meaning, stems from the Persian
word amrūd (or ūrmōd).
This combined with its pear-shaped
exterior occasionally sees the
bergamot wrongly confused with poirier
bergamote or bergamot pear – a very
different fruit of the same name.
WHERE DOES BERGAMOT GROW
A hybrid between sweet lemon (citrus
limetta) and bitter orange (citrus
aurantium), the bergamot is about the
size of your average orange (approx.
5-8 cm).
This citrus fruit is mostly round. But
its elongated shape does bear some
resemblance to a pear. And, depending
on the ripeness, the bergamot’s colour
ranges from yellow to green.
More than 90% of bergamot is grown in
the province of Reggio di Calabria in
Southern Italy.
However, this bitter citrus can also
be found in Algeria, Argentina,
Brazil, Mauritius, Turkey, the Ivory
Coast, South-East Asia, the South of
France and even other parts of Italy.
Snip...

The bergamot herbs are perennial
plants native to North America and are
commonly grown as ornamentals to
attract bees, butterflies, and
hummingbirds. Bee balm, or Oswego tea
(Monarda didyma), was used as a
beverage by the Oswego tribe of
American Indians and was one of the
drinks adopted by American colonists
during their boycott of British tea.
The leaves are used to flavour
punches, lemonade, and other cold
drinks. Lemon bergamot, or lemon bee

bergamot (M. fistulosa) are also used
as flavourings and in teas.
