Germans Put Fruit ... WHERE ?!

[@puntinounterwegs]

Since the apple is the 'basic' fruit, it is often used as synonyme for fruit in general. Thus, the word 'Apfelsine', but also e.g. the English word 'pineapple' or the Italian words 'melone' (big apple) or 'pomodoro' (golden apple). And don't forget about the 'Erdapfel' (pomme de terre). There are many other examples in indoeuropean languages.

[@markbernier8434]

Originally had the connotation of spherical as well. In English, there are a lot of words with "Pea" in them that make no sense until you find out it originally had to do with size as much as what something was. Thus you have the very odd Peameal that is actually ground corn.

[@oscare.quiros6349]

I would have thought that banana was the "basic fruit"!

[@puntinounterwegs]

@@oscare.quiros6349: well, bananas were completely unknown to speakers of most indoeuropean languages for most of the time. But the apple is part of their diet for thousands of years already.

One of the extremely interesting things I realized from watching Trixie's videos is how much more English and German are parallel than they seemed at first. They so often do the same thing in alternate ways, even though English has been stripped of its former Germanic forms. German will jam several words together to make one, where English will leave the spaces between the words, and perhaps put in some helper words between to vaguely accomplish what German readily does with word forms. So it is not likely that apple or other fruit will be part of another English word. The logic behind the two language however is very similar. Presumably apple occurs in some German words, which are not about apples, because at some earlier time apple might be used with a more generic meaning. It is too much of a stretch to say apple is being used figuratively, as Trixie points out. English, on the other hand, has very little sign of this generic type of apple today. English does have "The apple of his eye." due to a line from Shakespeare. But others have pointed out it doesn't mean the same thing today (the women=apple of his affection), because the apple was the pupil of the eye in the quote. Trixie's German example has apple being the whole eye. The difference between the pupil of the eye and the eye itself is a lot less than today's idea of apple and eye in English. Looking at the top of an apple with the stem removed, you might very well see this as similar to the pupil of an eye. In English today, potatoes have eyes, but not apples. Storms have an eye (the center), but not pupils (the center of the eye.) Today potatoes and storms do not have apples, but they may have in Shakespeare's time. Words going from generic to specific, and the other way, are common in language, but sometimes they do evolve in a way that doesn't go back. Returning to fruit, English has "You are mixing apples and oranges," meaning that two similar things, in this case, must be treated differently. These apples aren't apples (the fruit) and these oranges aren't oranges (the fruit). In old movies, a tomato could be a pretty girl, and a top banana could be a person in charge of everything. I think this came from risque girlie shows, obsoleted by today's standards, where the tomatoes were the girls, and the top banana was the comedian MC.
