I tried to find my Swahili dictionary (really I have one) but to no avail.
Gotten curious I went on the internet (that unsurpassed source of
information), and it told me 'twiga'. Why do you think that is so pretty?

it's a kewl sounding word
it's also kinda kewl to be able to c so directly where the word comes from
it is very descriptive of their style of eating
if u've ever seen a raffie in the wild wrapping that loooong (TMI WARNING!) tongue around a twig at the top of the tree (where they get the juiciest lil' leaves) and strip the twig of all the leaves, i suspect u might like the word 'twiga' just a lil' bit more
