西红柿原产墨西哥,印第安人叫它tamatl,进入西班牙语后写作tomate,进入英语后写作tomato.这种植物最初结一种枯萎多皱的果实,因而被误认为有害的。到了16世纪,人们又传说西红柿能刺激性欲。直到今天,法语还把西红柿叫作pomme d'amour(爱情之果),英语也有把西红柿叫作love apple的。来源于西班牙语=来自古班牙语tomate,来自南美土著语tomatl,西红柿,拼写受potato影响俗化。

小知识
Although usually called a vegetable and eaten as such, the tomato is actually a fruit that can be eaten raw or cooked. It might be red or yellow in various sizes, and comes in shapes from round to pear-shaped.
Since the tomato is native to South America, it makes sense that its name is based in the Spanish tomate, and can be traced to the Aztecs, whose language, Nahuatl, contained the word tomatl, or “the swelling fruit.” In 1519, Cortez brought tomato seeds to Spain, where the plant was grown as an ornament but not for eating. The French called them pommes d'amour, or “love apples,” and in 1929 the word became American slang for a pretty girl.
