Etymology of GRANATE

The word "granate" comes from the Old French word "pome grenate", which means "seeded apple". This term was derived from the Latin word "pomum granatum", where "pomum" means "apple" and "granatus" means "seeded" or "having grains". The Latin term referred to a fruit with many seeds, resembling the structure of an apple. Eventually, "pomum granatum" evolved into "pome grenate" in Old French, and later into "granate" in various languages, including English. The word is primarily associated with the pomegranate fruit, known for its many seeds and vibrant red color.
