Pear

/PAIR/  n.
  1. 1. A fruit of exceptional curvature, particularly noted for its broad base tapering to a delicate stem; frequently observed in suburban orchards and farmer's markets.
  2. 2. colloq. The produce aisle's tribute to thicccness, best admired from the back end, where her silhouette defies containment in standard fruit baskets.
In a sentence:

"Behold, a pear so thiccc it requires its own section in the fruit bowl. The centerpiece just got an upgrade."

Etymology:

From Middle English pere, from Old French pere, from Vulgar Latin *pira, plural of pirum. Its generous base has been recognized since the Roman Empire.

From the desk

Filed by

Teddy VanceJunior Cataloguer

The pear's broad base has been recognized since the Roman Empire, and honestly it still holds up.

Ruling ADMITTED, WITH A FOOTNOTE

Bart PrussSenior Cataloguer

The broad base tapering to a stem is on record and sufficient. The fruit bowl requiring its own section is a domestic claim, not a measurement.

In the margin

Eliza HartwellStaff Writer

The Roman Empire catalogued a lot of things. The pear is the only one that made the fruit bowl apologize.
