Question 40 was replaced (thanks T Compton - 16 May 2007) because it
had three different possible answers: pear, citrus or orange. As well as being
a pear variety, bergamot arguably more commonly refers the pear-shaped citrus
or orange fruit, grown in Italy, a cross between a pear-lemon and Seville
orange or grapefruit, used in making Bergamot oil and for flavouring Early Grey
tea. The word bergamot is originally from the Turkish begarmud, meaning
prince's pear.
