A pineapple is a sweet and juicy fruit that has a rough, spiky skin and a crown of green leaves on top.
You say 'pineapple' like this: pie-nap-uhl.
The word 'pineapple' comes from the Spanish word 'piña', which means 'pine cone', because the fruit looks a bit like a pine cone.
The word 'pineapple' in Kannada is 'ಅನಾನಸ್' (Anānas).
Pineapples are like little treasures from the tropics! Imagine a spiky, golden fruit that tastes like sunshine. When you cut it open, it reveals juicy, sweet goodness inside.
Did you know that pineapples grow on plants close to the ground, not on trees? They love warm weather and take a long time to grow, sometimes up to two years!
You can eat them fresh, in smoothies, or even on pizza! So next time you see a pineapple, remember it’s not just a fruit; it’s a fun adventure waiting to be tasted! Yum! 🍍✨
