Multiple fruit

Multiple fruits are fruits that grow from more than one flower (called an inflorescence).^[1][2] Each flower in the inflorescence produces a fruit, and then these join together.^[3] There are also many multiple fruits that become dry later.

Pineapple is a kind of multiple fruit.

In languages other than English, the meanings of multiple and aggregate fruit are reversed.^[4]
