That’s because the scientific definition of berries has little in common with the colloquial one. That doesn’t make either wrong, they are just used in different contexts

We really should rename botanical berries to something else.

The thing is, there is for sure some Latin technical term that you can use. And it’s still close enough to berries to call them that.

Oh probably, but I don’t speak latin. Most people don’t speak latin; there’s like 1000 people in the world maximum who could hold a conversation in latin.

I know you didn’t mean it, but this has the, “Do I LOOK like I speak Latin?” Energy and as a American, I’m all about that.
