Defining ethnic food is difficult. "Ethnic foods represent a complex, dynamic category, "according to the National Restaurant Association, "In a multi-cultural society like the U. S., one tends to perceive more and more cuisines as ethnic. "Also, over time, items that used to be distinctly ethnic, like tacos and pizza, have become part of the mainstream American diet. While an exact definition of ethnic food may be difficult, three trends are clearly emerging. First, traditionally popular ethnic foods such as Mexican, Italian and Chinese are becoming more sophisticated through the use of regional-type cooking and ingredients. Second, new ethnic cuisines, such as Indian, Moroccan and Thai cuisines, are experiencing "hot" growth because they are rich in aromas and have strong taste profiles that are unique and varied. Third, ethnic fusion foods, which combine the flavors of different regions and cultures, are growing in popularity because they satisfy the American demand for variety and taste. 2, record 5, English, - ethnic%20food

Pongal(in Tamil) is an Indian festival to give thanks for the harvest. Pongal in Tamil means ’boiling over’. It is traditionally celebrated at the time of harvest of crops and hence is a celebration of the prosperity associated with the event. Pongal is celebrated by all people in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. While Pongal is predominantly a Tamil festival, the same period also marks similar festivals celebrated in several other places under different names. In Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, the harvest festival Sankranthi is celebrated. In northern India, it is called Makar Sankranti. In Maharashtra and Gujarat, it is the date of the annual kite-flying day, Uttarayan. It also coincides with the harvest festival in Punjab and Haryana, known as Lohri. 1, record 13, English, - Pongal

Le Pongal - littéralement bouilli par-dessus en tamoul - aussi appelé Makar Sankranti dans d'autres endroits de l'Inde est une fête des moissons et d'actions de grâce, mais aussi propitiatoire de l'Inde. Le Pongal est historiquement une fête séculière indépendante de l'hindouisme, ce qui pourrait indiquer une origine très ancienne. Principalement célébré en Inde du Sud, particulièrement au Tamil Nadu, en Andhra Pradesh et au Karnataka, il l'est aussi à Singapour et en Malaisie où il existe des communautés tamoules. Malgré cette prépondérance de l'Inde du Sud, on reconnaît cette fête dans d'autres parties de l'Inde, dans le Nord par exemple où elle porte le nom de Makar Sankranti. Au Maharashtra et dans le Goujerat, elle prend la forme d'un concours de cerf-volant. Au Panjâb et en Haryana elle est célébrée sous le nom de Lohri. 1, record 13, French, - Pongal

The territory of the Western Shoshoni included central and western Idaho, northwestern Utah, central and northeastern Nevada, and Death Valley and Panamint Valley of California, largely barren and unproductive areas. They were sometimes referred to as "Diggers," from their habit of digging plant roots with a stick as an important means of subsistence. Another name applied was Shoshoko, meaning "walkers", to distinguish them from the horse-owning Shoshoni. 2, record 20, English, - Digger

Digger : Said by Powell to be the English translation of Nuanuints, the name of a small tribe near St George, s. w. Utah,. It was the only Paiute tribe practising agriculture, hence the original signification of the name, "digger". In time the name was applied to every tribe known to use roots extensively for food and hence to be "diggers. "It thus included very many of the tribes of California, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona, tribes speaking widely different languages and embracing perhaps a dozen distinct linguistic stocks. As the root-eaters were supposed to represent a low type of Indian, the term speedily became one of opprobrium [pejorative]. 3, record 20, English, - Digger

Il n'y a pas de traduction officielle pour «Digger» parce qu'il s'agit d'une tribu qui n'aurait jamais eu affaires avec les explorateurs francophones. Les peuples de cette tribu résident pour la plupart dans les États de Nevada et d'Utah dans le sud-ouest des États-Unis. Ils parlent une langue d'origine Uto-Aztèque, langue qui a plus d'affinité avec les autochtones du Mexique qu'avec ceux des Plaines canadiennes. Il existe pourtant un nom français pour désigner la division amérindienne à laquelle les «Diggers» appartiennent : Shoshones de l'Ouest - équivalent le plus proche, quoique imprécis. Au besoin, on peut toujours utiliser le terme anglais en expliquant en bas de page l'étymologie du terme «digger». 2, record 20, French, - Shoshone%20de%20l%27Ouest
