Etymology of MUSKAPPLE

The word "Muskapple" is a combination of two separate words with distinct origins.

1. "Musk": The term "musk" comes from the Old Persian word "mušk" which means "testicle" because musk primarily comes from the glandular secretions of male animals. It was subsequently borrowed into many other languages and referred to a strong-smelling substance with an earthy, musky aroma.

2. "Apple": The word "apple" comes from the Old English word "æppel" which originates from the Old Frisian "appel" and the late Latin "ap(p)ĕlla". These words were ultimately derived from the Proto-Germanic word "*aplaz", which can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European root "*h₂ébōl".
