Compare the same in archaic German Paradiesapfel (literally “paradise apple”), whence Austrian German Paradeiser (“tomato”) and equivalent forms in several eastern European languages. The phonetic similarity with English tomato, Spanish tomate is probably coincidental.

Compare also Italian pomodoro (literally “gold apple”), archaic English love apple.",
