Hazelnut
I know that it isn't a phrase but I can't for the life of me find the latin translation for the word "hazelnut". Can anyone help? Thanks.
I'm no expert on nuts - as has been proved in pervious discussions, however I do know that the Latin name for the Hazel itself is Corylua Avellana.
Maybe someone else can help with the nut part.

From the 1934 Webster's unabridged:
"Hazel" derives,
through a series of forms in different languages, from the Latin "corylus." (Not
clear what the referent of "corylus" is; maybe the shrub.) "Corylus" is also the
genus name. The European species is C. avellana; the U.S. species is C. americana.
Latin
for nut is "nux" or "nucis."
