I have bought a pineapple from the wet market this for making the pineapple fried rice later.
It’s a very famous Thai Cusine. You may check it out online.
I just realized that Pineapple is called Nanas in so many countries and languages, like mentioned by @vidocka in his post:https://virily.com/virily_poll/alphabet-crazy-healthy-dream-fruit-pineapple-ananas/#comment-674144
And, also by @WittyFeeds.
I wondered if it is called Nanas too at it’s indigenous place, either Brazil or Paraguay of South America.
-

-

-
No

Pineapple is also called ananas
In what language is that? curious.
In Serbian language pineapple is called Ananas.
Milica,thanks for telling, nice to know that.
As I said in the post, the Slovenian language is called ananas
Yes, noted with thanks!
It is ananas in Romanian.
Thanks Diana, noted.
Well call it pineapple and annanas as well
May I know which country?
We call it pineapple here!
English speaking country,right?
It’s called Nanas in our national language. It’s called “huang li” in Mandarin in our country, but “feng li” in Taiwan. I wonder why it’s called “feng” (phoenix) in Taiwan, but “huang” perhaps means yellow color.
So true, Anyway, does “feng li” refers to those type that are not edible but for display purpose?
I think they just call them “feng li”. Their famous cookies “feng li su” are made of edible pineapples.
We simply call them pineapples in the US.
why it’s a combination of pine+apple, I wondered too.:P
I wonder about that too….. why “apple”?
Haha, any relation to the apple?
Pineapple is ananas also in French as Abhushek Verma mentionned and beat me to it. I never knew that the French language had some roots from the Russian and Hindi languages….
I see, but I think it roots from Brazilian language, maybe.
It is Ananas in Hindi, and in the Russian language as well
It sounds interesting! What a lovely discovery.
