zwetschge
The zwetschge () (''Prunus domestica'' subsp. ''domestica'') is a fruit-bearing tree, or its fruit. It is a subspecies of the plum ''Prunus domestica''.〔European Environment Agency EUNIS, Prunus domestica ssp. domestica L., Common names and synonyms: http://eunis.eea.europa.eu/species/179701〕 The freestone fruit is similar to, but distinct from, the clingstone damson (''Prunus domestica'' subsp. ''insititia'')〔Sorting Prunus Names: http://www.plantnames.unimelb.edu.au/Sorting/Prunus_Pt2.html〕 and is especially popular in Central Europe.
==Etymology==
The word ''zwetschge'', plural ''zwetschgen'', is from the German. Variants of the word include: ''quetsch(e)'' (Alsace, Luxembourg, and regionally in Germany); ''zwetschke'' (regionally in Austria); and ''zwetsche'' (regionally in Germany).〔Wiktionary: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Zwetsche〕 These names, like ''damson'', are thought ultimately to derive from postulated non-standard Latin
*''davascena'', meaning "of Damascus". Czech ''švestka'' is from the German.〔Grimm, Deutsches Wörterbuch (German): http://woerterbuchnetz.de/DWB/?sigle=DWB&mode=Vernetzung&lemid=GZ13174〕
