'''Fruits''' (French: fruit, German: Frucht, Greek: καρπός, Spanish: fruta, Russian: плод; фрукты) are the edible part of a plant, like [[apple]]s, [[grape]]s, [[peach]]es, [[mulberry|mulberries]], [[banana]]s, etc.
Fruits that consist of ripened ovaries alone, such as the [[tomato]] and [[pea]] pod, are called true fruits.
