Re: Plum, Peach and Apricot
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!!ByeeeeeeEvergreens: Anastasia Angelica Arthur Charlotte Cindy Felix Jack Luna Odette Saoirse Stella Valentino
