FIG

Fig, n. Etym: [F. figue the fruit of the tree, Pr. figa, fr. L. ficus fig tree, fig. Cf. Fico. ]

 

1. (Bot. )

 

Defn: A small fruit tree (Ficus Carica ) with large leaves, known from the remotest antiquity. It was probably native from Syria westward to the Canary Islands.

 

2. The fruit of a fig tree, which is of round or oblong shape, and of various colors.

 

Note: The fruit of a fig tree is really the hollow end of a stem, and bears numerous achenia inside the cavity. Many species have little, hard, inedible figs, and in only a few does the fruit become soft and pulpy. The fruit of the cultivated varieties is much prized in its fresh state, and also when dried or preserved. See Caprification.

 

3. A small piece of tobacco. [U.S.]
