Why did the fruit "apple" retain its name as "apple", since it originally referred to other fruits and other fruits became specifically named?
That makes sense. Do you know if there were any other fruits that were referred to as "apples" in the past?
Yes, there were actually several other fruits that were referred to as "apples" in different parts of the world. For example, in Ancient Greece, the pomegranate was often called the "apple of love" or the "apple of paradise."
