Re: Apple vs Brazilian?
Depends upon who you talk to. But if the Apple banana has a synonym of Manzano, then that is the Apple Banana. The apple banana is also known as Tundan or La Tundan in the Philippines and is never referred to as apple banana in the Philippines. The key word for this one is Manzano, from the word Manzanas which means apple in Spanish. Since banana is platano, a male term, so Manzano is used instead of Manzanas. Why is the banana associated with male name?, well it is obvious from the shape.
The Brazilian (regular and dwarf) are sometimes referred to as "Hawaiian" Apple Banana. The key word here is Hawaiian or if you talk to someone from Hawaii, then it could be the brazilian banana.
