Ciarameddàru (m)

[lu?]From Giovanni Malara, »Vocabolario dialettale Calabro-Reggino-Italiano« (Reggio Calabria, 1909), in which the term is defined as a synonym of Cerameḍḍàru; NB¹: Marcuse, who fails to reveal her source, clearly misinterpreted both form (Ciarameddari [i.e. plural, instead of singular?]) and type (zampogna [bagpipe] !), errors that are ignorantly parroted by Podnos; NB²: ➺ homonyms, &c.
