Nauru has pineapple "trees"
or
Join in the evacuation.

"There have been made plans to evacuate the whole population to another island."

You do realize that this is very serious. Pineapple enthusiasts everywhere should be up in arms. If we lose the pineapple trees in Nauru, they are gone.

The National Anthem of Nauru

Nauru bwiema, ngabena ma auwe.
Ma dedaro bwe dogum, mo otata bet egom.
Atsin ngago bwien okor, ama bagadugu
Epoa ngabuna ri nan orre bet imur.
Ama memag ma nan epodan eredu won engiden,
Miyan aema ngeiyin ouge,
Nauru eko dogin!

Nanasi
or
Not really Swahili

It is actually Kiswahili and nanasi is the word for pineapple, I have discovered some very disturbing facts that may apply to your thread in Retail (Grocery). The clam is close enough to the oyster that it really does apply.

"Mgeni hachomi chaza mtaani akanuka"
A stranger does not roast an oyster in a village and then get accused of smelling of it.

Keep that in mind when roasting clams.
