Sailors, Tailors, Cooks, and Crooks: on Loanwords and Neglected Lives in Indian Ocean Ports

This study highlights lexical borrowing as an analytical tool to deepen our understanding of cultural exchanges between Indian Ocean ports during the long nineteenth century, comparing loanwords from several Asian and African languages and demonstrating how doing so can re-establish severed links between communities. In this comparative analysis, four research avenues come to the fore as speciﬁcally useful to explore the dynamics of non-elite contact in this part of the world: (1) nautical jargon, (2) textile terms, (3) culinary terms, and (4) slang associated with society’s lower strata. These domains give prominence to a spectrum of cultural brokers frequently overlooked in the wider literature. It is demonstrated through con- crete examples that an analysis of lexical borrowing can add depth and substance to existing scholarship on interethnic contact in the Indian Ocean, providing methodolo- gical inspiration to examine lesser studied connections. This study reveals no uniﬁed linguistic landscape, but several key individual connections between the ports of the Indian Ocean frequented by Persian, Hindustani, and Malay-speaking communities.

Middle Eastern Cuisine
MIDDLE EASTERN CUISINE The term Middle Eastern cuisine refers to the various cuisines of the Middle East. Despite their similarities, there are considerable differences in climate and culture, so that the term is not particularly useful. Commonly used ingredients include pitas, honey, sesame seeds, sumac, chickpeas, mint and parsley. The Middle Eastern cuisines include: Arab cuisine Armenian cuisine Cuisine of Azerbaijan Assyrian cuisine Cypriot cuisine Egyptian cuisine Israeli cuisine Iraqi cuisine Iranian (Persian) cuisine Lebanese cuisine Palestinian cuisine Somali cuisine Syrian cuisine Turkish cuisine Yemeni cuisine ARAB CUISINE Arab cuisine is defined as the various regional cuisines spanning the Arab World from Iraq to Morocco to Somalia to Yemen, and incorporating Levantine, Egyptian and others. It has also been influenced to a degree by the cuisines of Turkey, Pakistan, Iran, India, the Berbers and other cultures of the peoples of the region before the cultural Arabization brought by genealogical Arabians during the Arabian Muslim conquests. HISTORY Originally, the Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula relied heavily on a diet of dates, wheat, barley, rice and meat, with little variety, with a heavy emphasis on yogurt products, such as labneh (yoghurt without butterfat). As the indigenous Semitic people of the peninsula wandered, so did their tastes and favored ingredients. There is a strong emphasis on the following items in Arabian cuisine: 1. Meat: lamb and chicken are the most used, beef and camel are also used to a lesser degree, other poultry is used in some regions, and, in coastal areas, fish. Pork is not commonly eaten--for Muslim Arabs, it is both a cultural taboo as well as being prohibited under Islamic law; many Christian Arabs also avoid pork as they have never acquired a taste for it.

1 Jerome Jacobsen Mahtomedi High School Mahtomedi, MN Yemen
Jerome Jacobsen Mahtomedi High School Mahtomedi, MN Yemen, Factor 2 Global Cooperative to Build Water Infrastructure in Yemen “Under a staircase, clinging to a wall of Sana'a's Grand Mosque, groups of women and children lug plastic canisters to the leaky spigots of a public fountain. Small children struggle with canisters as they weave slowly between the fountain and the pushcarts used to wheel the water back home (Time).” Whether in cities or rural villages throughout Yemen, this is how millions of Yemenis obtain their water supply. In a country where water is almost never available, free public fountains are the only option for most, as very few can afford to pay the sky-high price for water. Water scarcity is becoming a chronic and debilitating problem for all of Yemen. On average, each Yemeni has access to a mere 140 cubic meters of water per year for all of their needs. This is less than fifteen percent of the Middle East water access average (Time). The threat of Yemen running dry grows nearer and nearer with every passing day. Streams and aquifers are growing shallower. The water table has fallen far below sustainable levels. The capital city, Sana’a’s water table was thirty meters below the surface in the late 1970s; it has now fallen to below 1,200 meters below the surface in some areas (Time). Experts estimate that Yemenis are using water that fell to the earth over 8,000 years ago. Making the situation worse is the exploding population of Yemen. Sana’a has the fastest growing population of any capital city, growing at seven percent a year.
