Are you thinking of kumquats?

- pvaldes 2y agoMore probable, Loquats are distant cousins of apples in the rose family.
- diego_moita 2y agoOh sh*t! My bad ... English is my 3rd language and I still do these embarrassing mistakes on it.
- Tagbert 2y agoIt’s OK. Unless people are very familiar with those fruits a lot of native English speakers will mix them up focusing on the “quat” part of the name which is odd in English.
- carlmr 2y agoI'd venture to guess that many native speakers neither know what a kumquat or loquat is. Being born somewhere usually confers a decent vocabulary, but rare things are rare in any case.
