I have Chambers 12th and just don't see it. I assume it's Latin. Late for my Zumba lesson...

Great, Joan! I thought it had to be zonam something. It is NOT in Chambers 12th though- I looked for zonam right away.

Remember...some foreign phrases are at the back of Chambers, in their own little zone.

Oh dear sorry Joan....only just noticed your post at 42!

I thought you were just giving a huge hint....

Silly me. I am not usually around on a Friday, but have been popping in between housework .

Have a good weekend.
