#arghisala

• Arghisală — A regional phonetic variant of the noun 'argăseală'; a term used in local dialects of certain rural areas to denote the liquid mixture consisting of water and tanning agents (oak bark, sumac gall, or mineral salts) in which raw hides are soaked during the tanning process. By extension, it describes the state or quality of a hide roughly processed under non-industrial conditions.
