There are words in Hebrew for carrot soup, sweet potato soup and squash soup, but Israelis tend to refer to all of these simply as מרק כתום[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/מרק-כתום-1.m4a” /] – orange soup.

For example:

Orange soup in the winter creates (makes) a homey feeling.

Now, כתום[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/מרק-כתום-3.m4a” /] is the word for the color orange, not the fruit – that’s תפוז[audioclip url=”https://archive.ulpan.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/מרק-כתום-4.m4a” /].
