    Also possibly a pomegranate, which comes from medieval latin for “apple with many seeds”. Lots of things were called apples in the past, and many languages still do that, like the French words for potato; “Pomme de terre” which means “Apple of the earth”.

    Apple just kinda mean fruit, so it’s quite vague.

      True, but I feel like in these discussions I really need to know which fruit it was that God was chatting with Great-Grandma about that afternoon.
