the answer is Xenon, isn't it? xeno in Latin is stranger, that's why there's xenophobia, fear of strangers.
It is Xenon. Xeno(latin)/xenos(greek) does mean stranger, good analogy zang.
it's just a play of words, really and it so happens i am hungry for English words. anyway, i don't know how am I scored for this, and how do I register here to get my points accumulated overtime?
