pear
The pear is any of several tree and shrub species of genus ''Pyrus'' , in the family Rosaceae.
It is also the name of the pomaceous fruit of these trees. Several species of pear are valued for their edible fruit, while others are cultivated as ornamental trees.
==Etymology==
The English word “pear” is probably from Common West Germanic ''pera'', probably a loanword of Vulgar Latin ''pira'', the plural of ''pirum'', akin to Greek ἄπιος ''apios'' (from Mycenaean ''ápisos''), which is of Semitic origin (Aramaic/Syriac "pirâ", meaning "fruit", from the verb "pra", meaning "to beget, multiply, bear fruit"). The place name ''Perry'' can indicate the historical presence of pear trees. The term "pyriform" is sometimes used to describe something which is pear-shaped.
