amer

0I heard a native speaker say "amer" (I don't know the correct spelling). Let me provide you with the context. He was trying to start a fire the traditional way - rubbing a stick along a narrow depression cut into the bamboo. Then, smoke started to form and that's when he said the word, "amer".02br
