usu = to use
fructu = any fruit, let �s pick avocado
ary = connected with

I think we can use the avocado, just because it �s connected with getting a shiny and beautiful hair, when it �s no longer shiny and beautiful. Oh, it can also be used as a facial treatment. Your skin will be as soft as a baby �s.

In the land of Fruitasia, which is adjacent to our world and we visit it quite frequently (even though we are unaware of it), the fruit magistrates have thought long and hard what to do with the half eaten fruit we humans sometimes leave lying around. They were having lots of complaints from fruit psychiatrists about many cases of post-eating depression and traumatic stress in half-eaten apples, half-chewed-up walnuts, etc. we left to rot somewhere on bus stops, tossed on the road (even through the windows of running cars while driving), etc. So the fruit magistrates passed a law by which they build a special fruit garden called USUFRUCTUARY which was made a sanctuary for the depressed and half-eaten fruits of Fruitasia, something like a wonderful home for the seniour citizens we have, but in the open.

I hope it �s ok to add two daffynitions (if not then just count mine previous one).
USUFRUCTUARY can also be an abbriviated slogan said to people who like to eat up fruit which don �t belong to them or which they have not grown and reality sound as "USe yoUr FRUctuary" and means "Eat your own fruit".

An actuary is a business professional who deal with the financial impact of risk uncertanity.Huh? An usufructuary is therefore an American (US)  business professional who offers fruit financial advice. These people can be seen working at supermarkets and green groceries and sometimes farms although at farms fruit and vegetables are usually not accorded the right (at least not here in the US) to hire financial planners due to union laws.
