Komentaryos/Notes
This domain is based on speech from Israel "Izzet" Bana, a speaker from Istanbul. Izzet is the director of the Sephardic youth choir "Las Estreyikas" (the little stars). It was edited by Rachel Bortnick (Izmir), Karen Gerşon Şarhon (Istanbul), and Carlos Yebra Lopez.
Teabag: sakito and talegita are both ways to say this.
sakito comes from sako 'bag', plus the masculine diminutive suffix -ito, so it literally means 'little bag.'
talegita comes from talega, which is an explicitly fabric bag, plus the feminine diminutive suffix -ita, so it literally means 'little fabric bag.'
