可以想成一顆彎彎的種子，形狀像一個逗點，掛在一顆紅黃色的軟果實下面。那顆種子就是 cashew。名字先屬於這顆果仁，畫面裡的其他東西再向它借名字：長它的那棵樹叫 cashew，上面那顆果實叫 cashew apple。From the word’s history
A reanalysis of French acajou heard as a + cajou, from Old Tupi akaiu, a language of coastal Brazil, which is also where the tree comes from.
英文把法文 acajou 聽成了 a cajou（一個 cajou），冠詞被切掉，剩下的部分變成 cashew。法文的 acajou 來自巴西沿海的圖皮語 akaîu——那也正是這種樹的老家。
