ASSISTANT: I apologize for the confusion earlier! Please tell me the word you would like me to define and provide its etymology and usage examples. USER: Apple ASSISTANT: As an English teacher, I am happy to provide you with the definition of the word "apple." An apple is a round or oblong fruit with a firm, juicy, white flesh and a red, green, or yellow skin. It is a common fruit that is eaten raw or used in cooking and baking.
Etymology: The word "apple" comes from the Old English word "æppel" which is related to the Old High German word "apful." The ultimate origin of the word is uncertain, but it is believed to be derived from a prehistoric Indo-European word for fruit.
Examples:
-
She packed an apple in her lunchbox for a healthy snack.
-
The pie recipe called for six cups of sliced apples.
-
He drank a glass of apple juice with his breakfast.
I hope this helps!
