Entry	rano
Part of speech	noun
French definition	Eau ; mais aussi la sève qui s'écoule des arbres. On dit aussi ranon-kazo (littéralement : eau des arbres). Mais cette expression a changé de sens. Autrefois elle s'appliquait aux teintures préparées à partir des bois colorants : bois de campêche, bois de rose, nato, etc. La sève de certaines plantes reçoit un nom spécial quand elle a des emplois particuliers. Par exemple : ranon' akondro : sève obtenue du Bananier. [Boiteau 1997]
