Claim: "Pecan is from an Algonquin word variously referring to Pecans, walnuts, and hickory nuts."
Is the claim above correct, and can it be verified by human common sense and without a web search?
Options:
- yes
- no The thought process:
A pecan, like the fruit of all other members of the hickory genus, is not truly a nut, but is technically a drupe, a fruit with a single stone or pit, surrounded by a husk.
Therefore, the answer is no.
