mouthpiss 

The disgusting smell you encounter on the mouthpiece of a woodwind or brass wind instrument if you haven't washed it soon after you've removed it from the instrument. Often accompanied by bits of food and decayed tooth particles that you have to scrape off with your fingers.

corporate ethics 

Two words that don't seem to make sense together; large corporations can and often do use unethical means to gain public trust and their precious capital, for example, building big-box shopping malls on environmentally sensitive land where there may be endangered flora and fauna.

Pronounced "dooh-DOOHK", this amazing, warm and sweet-sounding oboelike musical instrument from Armenia and Georgia is the one instrument in the world that sounds like a human voice. Djivan Gasparyan is one of the best-known soloists on this instrument. The duduk is usually suited to slow, mournful melodies but it's not unusual to hear it playing bright, happy music. In Georgia, the name of the instrument is "duduki". Variants of the duduk do exist in several other countries, for instance Azerbaijan, but the names for them vary, like "balaban" in Azerbaijan and "balaman" in Daghestan, but their tonal quality tends to be a little louder and more penetrating.
I love the sound of the duduk---it's very soothing.
