Target Sense

  • The most generic term for fruit that can be eaten as food, typically fruit of a tree.
  • The most basic term may be collective rather than singular (perhaps with additional morphology to mark a singulative form). Provide whichever is the base form in the language.
  • The literal term for edible fruit. Avoid terms specific to figurative or metaphorical senses, e.g. the fruit(s) of one’s labour.
  • Avoid terms specific to any particular sort of fruit, such as terms specialised for smaller fruit, e.g. berry.
