Is it really? I always thought that was a "knob" of dry earth (or whatever) protruding from a wet area. But you know more than I do about such things. :-)

How about palsa? It's wet when it's not frozen.

True. And it's quite acceptable now. :-)

Yes, well, I've certainly seen paludinous in English texts so I suspect palude may have been acceptable at one time.

Thanks, bilby! When I started this list, I hadn't thought of adding words from other languages. :-)

Palude belongs here I think.

U, be sure to tell Marsh that he's been memorialized on a Wordie list. If THAT doesn't make him famous, I don't know what will. ;->

I know a guy named Marsh. Well, I met him once. He's the lead singer in an almost-popular band and I was doing the fanboy thing at one of his shows. Nice guy. *starstruck*

Thanks, j. I must give credit to trivet, who gave me the idea.

Fabulous list. I'm just jealous that I didn't think of it first!
