Are there any languages or dialects not distinguishing between taste and smell?
Possible duplicate of this older and much more general question.

English for one subsumes smell under taste, insofar taste is mostly perceived by the nose, except for the four or five basic tastes sour, salt, sweet, bitter (and umami/meat), as the common knowledge goes. – vectory Nov 4 '19 at 6:08

@vectory: Languages or dialects having only one word for both these senses. – Lucian Nov 4 '19 at 6:13
