Etymology and Origin:
The word "medlar" is derived from the Old French word "mesle," which in turn comes from the Latin word "mespilum." The Latin word is thought to have originated from the Greek word "mespilon," which means "apple tree."
Meaning:
A medlar is a small, round fruit with a brown or reddish skin and a sweet and slightly sour pulp. It is native to Western Asia and Europe, and is still cultivated in some regions today.
The term "medlar" can also refer to the tree on which the fruit grows, which is known as the medlar tree (Mespilus germanica).
