True, but my understanding was that, since it's a word of foreign origin and presumably one only recently borrowed into the language, it requires the *naH* to let everyone know that it's a fruit/vegetable we're talking about.

To be clear: did he say /tanje'rIn/ or /tanje'rIn naH/?
According to Qov's story, he said {tanje'rIn}.
But I would not put too much weight on that. It's very likely that he simply forgot that all fruits have the {naH} complement, and on the other hand, I have noticed that many people cheat in those cases saying {'epIl vISop} and everyone understands.

I mean, what would be the difference between {tanje'rIn} and {tanje'rIn naH}? Just my opinion, of course.
