Um. Some people make fun of the way George W. Bush says "America." And... some people like to then continuously say "ummerka" --as if it were an "amen."
...
Well, someone recently told me "you know 'umerka' actually means something." ...but when I asked her what, she didn't remember.
So here's the answer:
Amurca
/əˈmɜrkə/
–noun
the lees or sediment of olive oil.
also,
Merca
/ˈmɛrkɑ/
–noun
a city in S Somalia.
That's it.
