Dearest colleagues especially native speakers: I was looking for a name of a fruit and I found out that it has many names but I don �t know which one is more common: Christ �s thorn / lote tree fruit / Jujube/nabaq thanks a lot in advance |

I think it �s Jujube - it �s similar to a date
I hope this is useful ^_^ |

I must confess, I hadn �t heard of this fruit. I would go with jujube, though. |

I googled your four suggestions and found three very different fruits (and no listing for nabaq, but I did find nabq). Anyway, I will go with "jujube", too, although I �d suggest saying "jujube fruit", since "jujube" is also a kind of candy. Bruce

My word Bruce, yes, it is! I remember jujus and those were obviously jujubes! |
