Fruits like करवंद(karavaMd) may not have English name because it does not grow in England. Similarly "Dragon fruit","Kiwi" may not have Marathi name because it did not grown in Maharashtra. It is recent addition to fruit market of India.  So those fruits are called by same in name in Marathi as well. There will be some botanical/technical name but that is not used in day-to-day conversation. 

Fruits which retain their non-Marathi name in Marathi
Dragon fruit
Kiwi
Avacado
Blueberry
Blackberry

  2. Good compilation!

    Another marathi name for watermelon is also 'kalingad'. कलिगड

    1. Thanks Sameer. Added word "कलिंगड". I think that is more common name in Marathi for watermelon. Just forgot it while creating this blogpost. I do not know English word for "बोर". I guess there may not be English word for बोर; as it is an Indian fruit; may not be available in England. But this is just guess.

      Delete
    2. बोर in English seems to be 'Jujube'. Another interesting marathi fruit is करवन्‌द. It would be cranberry. It would be rather loose translation. However so I believe is black berry for जांभुळ. These (cranberry than करवन्‌द and black berry than जांभुळ) are rather different fruits.

    3. exatly jambul and karvanda are different fruit than cranbery and blackberry
      may these have not generic name but scientific name of all fruits are different and lossely on apperance consider as same fruit though ahve diifernt taste.

      Delete
    4. cranberry is not करवन्‌द. . Cranberry is junglee 'bor' -very much red in colour-Sameer Mahajan. It is full of anti-oxidants. I am not so well-versed in attaching photos etc. else I would have shown you how cranberry looks. But I think , though I am not sure that करवन्‌द means asai .

    2. There is no Marathi name for Dragon fruit. Because it is not an Indian fruit
