Thus the name could hardly have been better. Since then the name kiwifruit has become widely established in the scientific, technical and commercial fields, except in a few countries such as France, where the fruit are called yangtao, or Italy where the scientific genus name Actinidia is used.
從此，除了少數地方如法國還稱獼猴桃為「陽桃」、義大利人稱呼其拉丁學名「Actinidia」外，「奇異果」這個名字，已經廣泛運用在科學、技術、商業等各個領域了。
