sentences:  The name pomegranate derives from medieval Latin "pōmum" "apple" and "grānātum" "seeded".Possibly stemming from the old French word for the fruit, "pomme-grenade", the pomegranate was known in early English as "apple of Grenada"—a term which today survives only in heraldic blazons.This is a folk etymology, confusing the Latin "granatus" with the name of the Spanish city of Granada, which derives from Arabic.
