Best Answer

Pomme is the French word for apple, literally "fruit."

Confusion can result from the term pommes frites(frites) which is the French word for "french fries." This is because the word for "potato" is pomme de terre (fruit of the ground) but is almost always shortened.

* The slang term pom or pomme or pommy is an Australian term for the British, thought to come from Prisoner Of [Her] Majesty, as most British convicts sent to Australia penal colonoes were.
