He picked fruit from the trees.
- The most generic term for fruit that can be eaten as food, typically fruit of a tree.
- The most basic term may be collective rather than singular (perhaps with additional morphology to mark a singulative form). Provide whichever is the base form in the language.
- The literal term for edible fruit. Avoid terms specific to figurative or metaphorical senses, e.g. the fruit(s) of one’s labour.
- Avoid terms specific to any particular sort of fruit, such as terms specialised for smaller fruit, e.g. berry.
