Abroo with a posh accent

As I was editing Lida Ghassemi's "Eyebrow nation", I thought, there must be a connection between ABROO and EYEBROW. There is a linguistic connection: Eyebrow comes from Middle English, from Old English bru (look up bhru - meaning eyebrow in American Heritage Dictionary) which is very close to our ABROO.

Winner: Sepideh Banihashemi. Sad Afarin!
