Acorn

acorn
- O.E. жcern "nut" originally of any forest tree, later limited to the most important for feeding swine, that of the oak. Possibly related (as "fruit of the field") to жcer "open land." O.Fr. had aigrun, from a Gmc. base, as a collective name for fruits and vegetables, which may have been how жcern began. Spelling changed by folk etymology from oak (O.E. ac) + corn.
