The message
from Sacha contains these words:
Bit like 'mūres' which, I think, can mean both blackberries or mulberries.
I imagine it's more often used to mean blackberries.
Mūre sauvage, oł Mūre de ronce. Mūre (seul), = mulberry
No doubt it will be shortened if the context allows...
Mūre de rance being of the River Rance or some other context?
Mūre de ronce. Ronce = thorns! Whereas rance means evil-smelling! ;-)
Fil de ronce = barbed wire.
