moorish
Hard to stop
Moorish means swampy or marshy, relating to moors—the open, uncultivated expanses of boggy land found especially in Britain: moorish terrain, moorish soil.
The word is uncommon, as most writers prefer "marshy" or simply describe land as moorland. (Capitalized Moorish relates to the Moors.)
