HelpRe: Plum, Peach and Apricot
in reply to a message by Jude
Hi !!!
They are so quirky but lovely!!!!
What could be their gender?
Peach is feminine imo. It has a very sweet sound with its final 'ch'!
Apricot? In Italian is named 'albicocca' and it is feminine. But the tree is 'albicocco' so masculine.
Plum is masculine imo.
In Italian is like apricot: the fruit is feminine (prugna) while the tree is masculine (prugno). But for me 'plum' is always masculine.
My favourite is Plum for a boy. Peach and Apricot are lovely but too sappy for me.

I studied Italian for two years in gymnasiet (like senior high) and at that time I could make a presentation of myself and even tell people about my Christmas holiday (in past tense!). But I've forgotten most of it. The only fruit and vegetables I remember are ciliegie, pomodoro and mela!

Oh Caprice !!
It is so nice that you remember those words!
I love cherries!! And it is a strange word to remember!! Please tell me some fruit names in Sweden!! Maybe they are good names as Plum, Peach and Apricot.
'Pomodoro', 'mela' and 'ciliegia' (the singular of ciliegie) are not names at all but I would choose Ciliegia as a name.
It has a strange sound I know but it is sweet imo and I love a lot of 'cherry' names: Cherry, Cerise, Kirsikka ...
So...let's try in Swedish!! XD Tell me ... I'm so curious!!
