14a O-riga-n - (wild marjoram) - 'on' (about) Riga (capital of Latvia)
Origan
On about Riga
Have you shown the correct number of letters ?
All I can think of is ORIGANO which is a variant of orEgano.
It is a herb (pot marjoram) and contains RIGA, the capital of LATVIA.

Sorry if this is all rubbish.
:-)
Looks as though it is nearly all rubbish !
Had not heard of origano without the 'O'

Well done the King and ARGEE2
:-)
Chambers gives origanum, also origan or origane - marjoram esp. wild marjoram. Also Oregano.
