Tuta (-)
(with) definite article: ?In Lhande translated as Cornemuse, &c. (➺ Tuta II, from a manuscript by Maurice Harriet (1814-1904)); According to Marcuse, who fails to reveal her source, the "Basque name of the Gaita gallega [sic]", which is not just an orthographic, but above all a rather injudicious error, ignorantly parroted by Podnos; NB: ➺ homonym (Sweden).
