Funny enough it seems in Persian there's no clear distinction between lime and lemon. My wife calls both "limoo". She does however claim there's a particular cultivars "limoo Shirin" that is supposedly very sweet (and hard to find outside of Iran)
Limoo Shirin is a rather common fruit here, I didn't expect that it is not easily found outside Iran. Although it doesn't taste that good and is usually mixed with orange juice or consumed for health benefits (it's considered good for preventing/treating cold).
When you refer to lemons you're usually referring to the green lime (which is called "limão-taiti", meaning tahiti lemon).
When we want to refer to the yellow lemon (the common lemon outside South America) we usually say Sicilian lemon.
There's another very common type of lime which we refer to as "limão-capeta" (devil's lemon), it's a small, orange-color lime with a less sour taste than the green lime.
So, in short, we don't distinguish between lemon and lime, everything is a lemon.
It has more names than tangerines and makes a great caipirinha.
Wikipedia says it is a hybrid between an orange and a pomelo, developed in Barbados.
OK, to answer my own question: toranj == citron
