===Vegetables and cereals=== | |||
Chlouvānem use does not make a big distinction between vegetables and fruit; tomatoes and carrots are considered "fruits" (''hælvyai'') just as pineapples or strawberries are. Those listed in this separate section are those that are exclusively used as parts of savoury dishes (except legumes, which are however not considered fruits). Cereals (''lāsīm'') are also included here, which are, unlike vegetables, a distinct category. | |||
Note that when listing ingredients, particularly in the names of dishes, the singular is used and not the plural, e.g. "baked potatoes" are ''lьtvogė nåmā''; "eel kebab with bliceikā, okra, and tomatoes" is ''bliceikęs ḍuyęs no benahīręs no lā saikhat rāltaika''. | |||

===Meat (incl. fish)=== | |||
Chlouvānem culinary conventions do not separate meat and fish: ''mædhram'' means both meat from land animals (''bhælāchokvāman mædhram'') and meat from fish (''dalьtāmān mædhram''). Note that the basic word for "fish", ''dalьtah'', is only used for the animals and never in culinary contexts. | |||
* '''mædhram''' — meat, including fish | |||
** ''bhælāchokvāman mædhram'' — meat (not fish) | |||
** ''dalьtāmān mædhram'' — fish (when used as food) | |||
* ''saikha'' — eel | |||
