what is a synonym for apple?

i think the name of an apple helps. or even just fruit.

pomme is how it SHOULD me spelt in french.

Strict Synonym

What's wrong with the French word for it :-)

You could use the name of a specific type of apple, like Macintosh or Granny Smith.

You could come up with a phrase like, "God's fruit" or "Eden fruit" to describe it.

You could also describe it a little more elliptically by referring to it as "the fruit that made (Sir Isaac) Newton think" or "the cider fruit".

Beyond that, I do not think there is any one-word synonym for 'apple'.

I would love to see if there is.

The word "POME" is not a strict synonym. It is "the characteristic fruit of the Apple family" but this also includes pears and quince. Please see the definitions attached.

However, as it is for a French assignment, the similarity between "POME" and the French "POMME" suggests to me that this is the word that you are after!

I don't think there is one an apple is a noun not a descriptive adjective or verb.

It is a fruit nothing more and nothing less.

If another comes along with a better answer take theirs.

Good luck.
