From: Le Fevre, L. (2006). Cloudland Memoirs : stories of contemporary 
Papua New Guinea. Melbourne, Brolga Publishing, 179 p.

In a short  illustrative list of c. 20 tok pisin terms (pp. 25-27), Le 
Fevre gives nasuwi as a term for "eggplant" (origin: Kuanua).

Its not in Mihalic - and eggplant is an introduction. Can anyone 
confirm/expand/alter the usage?
