You may well mean the Calamansi there.  Yes, I have heard of sweet lemon
and ¨sweet lime, but most often it seems to be the Calamansi which isnt
truely ¨'sweet' but is edible just as it is.  The other would be the
'cumquat' which ¨unfortunately gets a generic name convention and is
*extremley* varied in the ¨actual fruit.  Some are like little oranges
where the skin is so delicate, you ¨do not bother to peel them.  Others are
a bannana related family with a tang ¨of almost citrus .
