In Estonia we don't say it like that usually. It's not wrong but we usually just say "pistaatsiapähkel".
That short?
Yeah. It pretty much means pistachio nut.
I was pretty much joking about how that's longer than any of the words on the map in OP. But apparently it wasn't a good joke.
I liked it
Thanks!
