BLE
wheat
French: le blé
Mampa esalemaka na ble.
Bread is made from wheat.
Le pain est fait de blé.
Wheat — the imported grain behind the bread. Ble (from the French ble) is wheat. It grows little in the Congo's climate, so it arrives as flour — and from it comes mampa, the bread of the morning table.
