English term or phrase: turnip
Why, you turnip, if you had laid low and kept dark, there's chances to buy an American horse for mighty little more than you paid for that bloody old foreign relic. (Mark Twain, Roughing it!, Chapter 24)

S-a tradus in romana cartea prin Ageamii la ei acasa, insa nu gasesc traducerea oficiala si va trebui sa traduc eu fragmentul.
