Fruit in Latin · Lingua Latina Comprehensibilis · Food in Latin; Fruit, Apples, Pears, Grapes

N.B. there are many words for foods in Latin, with synonyms and alternate terms not given in this video. For a comprehensive list of the words for food used in Latin from 300 BC to the present, see neolatinlexicon.org/

What other kinds of fruits are that you'd like to see in FRUITS IN LATIN PART 2 ? 😃

N.B. x2: The Latin language has been used continuously from antiquity to the present day without any interruption. 😃 Therefore all the things that exist in Italian or Engilsh etc. have a word in Latin (see neolatinlexicon.org/ ). Indeed, almost every neologism we have in our modern languages actually was coined first in Mediaeval, Renaissance, or Modern Latin before it entered the vernacular languages.

《Feles non est cucurbita》.

Very cool to see how New World fruits such as pumpkins and tomatoes have been incorporated into Latin even though the Romans would not have known about them.

This was a great way to mark my 60th day learning Latin! Thank you for continuing to create content for us newbies as well. Your passion for the language is contagious.

In my dialect (south Latium) we call "peach" as "perseca" and "cherry" as "cerasa" :p

It is impressive how little were latin nouns modified into the actual italian ones. Nearly every fruit name is not or slightly changed in the spelling between these two languages, like: mora, mirtillo, clementina, uva, fragola and many more.
By the way thank you for this interesting content, it makes me wish to learn Latin the more I follow you, even if I didn't find out any app to learn this language with.
Saluti da Varese!

I was rather pleased to see that in the supernatural drama series Salam, the ambiguity of the word malum when written without macrons was an important plot point: After the witch-hunters spend half the first series searching for a ritual object referred to in their medieval latin writings as 'malum,' they realise that the object they seek is not just an evil ritual focus, but also a literal apple. Anyone here would see that plot twist coming well in advance.

I loved everything about this and your voice

Glad I am not the only person who sees a similarity in brambles and raspberries!

Last Sunday I showed this to my Lord Father-in-law and he enjoyed it.

You see, given the fact that both he and he late wife are Catholic, they seem thrilled every time I talk to him about Latin. As you know, Latin is the vernácular of the Catholic Church, therefore some people still reminisce the Church Service back in the day given in Latin.

As a student who needs help in latin, I wanna thank you. Today you won a suscriber, your work is really helpful !

In Old French, oranges were called pomme d'orange. There are one or two fossilized expressions with "pomme" meaning "fruit".

0:06 hum, so that is the reason why in portuguese a fruit plantation is called "pomar" 🤔

This is the moment, which I can watch forever

¡Excelente! Que se vengan más vídeos temáticos: vestimenta, utensilios, deportes...

Is the contraction of 'est' to 'st' mandatory according to the rules of restored classical pronunciation? Is it only a feature of the informal register, as it's most often the case in English?

Many are so similar to my language, Asturian. And while an apple is a Mazana (Spanish Manzana), we call an apple tree a "pomal".

I'm Turkish and I noticed that some Latin words are a lot more similar to their Turkish counterparts rather than their English ones.

Umerus = Omuz = Shoulder
Ūvea = Üzüm = Grape
Cōrvus = Karga = Raven
Cucurbita = Kabak = Pumpkin

Interesting lesson. Thanx a lot man

Beautifully done!
