noun, f. | -ου
3.6 · Plants · Trees
mulberry tree a deciduous fruit tree growing to about 6 m; produces black berries containing a sweet reddish juice For languages which have no specific term for ‘mulberry tree,’ one can often employ a generic expression followed by a type of classifier, for example, ‘the tree called mulberry’ (in which case the term ‘mulberry’ may be borrowed from a dominant language of the area) or ‘a tree producing berries’; but in LUK 17:6 the focus is upon the tree as a large object and not upon the type of fruit which it produced. One can, therefore, say simply ‘this tree.’
