    Esperanto is the only language that's too good to use "hummus" as a loanword like every other language does, and uses its own word "removedrkaĉo" meaning "chickpea porridge".

        Hexbear won't let me say ki ker, the Esperanto word for chickpea

        An internationalist term for a Levantine food, and the filter thinks it's an anti-semitic slur. The irony.
