Homework: The answer, which president brought the tomato back to america is – Thomas Jefferson. It is said, that he had sent some seeds to America, after he had eaten tomatos, when he had been in Paris.

And honestly, I didn´t read the other comments before.

Nahuatl being the language of the Aztecs of Mexico.
“Tomato” used to be slang for a beautiful woman. E.g., a generation or two ago, Marina might have been called a “tomato”.
“aphrodisiac” comes from Aphrodite, Greek goddess of love.

It is originally Tomatl. That’s also the present word in Nahuatl.

TOMATL —–> TOMATE —-> TOMATO

don’t know if they are afrodisiacs. I don’t think so. But It is well known that tomatoes are good for the taste of the semen

Hi Marina! Here’s great quote for this lesson: “Only two things money can’t buy, that’s true love and homegrown tomatoes!” It’s a song sung by Guy Clark. Here’s link to the song if you have never heard it before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nitgmAInI18 I think it’s a great little song!
By the way, I love homegrown TOMATOES!!!!

Hi Marina.

I realize I’m commenting late, but tomate come from the nahuatl lengiaje spoken by the aztecs (tomatl). Tomatl, however, applied to the small, green tomatoes, while for the red tomatoes, the word xitomatl (pronounce the x as sh) was used. These two words are still used in Mexico.
