"Pomegranate"
"Pomegranate" - etymology -
The word "pomegranate" derives from a Latin term "pomum granatum", meaning "many-seeded fruit".
The Old French version ("pomme grenate") is the namesake of the modern military "grenade", owing to superficial similarities between the seed-filled fruit and the shrapnel-filled explosive.
