n. a former province in central France. ber·ry (bĕr′ē)1. a. A fruit that develops from a single ovary and has many seeds in fleshy pulp. Grapes, bananas, tomatoes, and blueberries are true berries.b. Any small, juicy, fleshy fruit, such as a raspberry or strawberry, regardless of its botanical structure.2. A seed or dried kernel of certain kinds of grain or other plants such as wheat, barley, or coffee.Usage Most people think of a berry as a small, round fruit that grows on bushes and is eaten at breakfast or for dessert. If you ask them if they want berries with their cereal, they wouldn't expect you to put in a cucumber or tomato. But to a botanist, cucumbers and tomatoes are in fact berries, while strawberries and raspberries are not. How can this be? Scientists have to be careful about the names they use for things, and sometimes the precise meaning that they give to a word is different from the general meaning that ordinary people understand. That is the case with the word berry. To a botanist, a berry is a fleshy fruit consisting of a single ovary that has multiple seeds. Other true berries besides cucumbers and tomatoes are bananas, oranges, grapes, and blueberries. However, many fruits that are popularly called berries have a different structure and thus are not true berries. For example, strawberries and raspberries are aggregate fruits, developed from multiple ovaries of a single flower. The mulberry is not a true berry, either. It is a multiple fruit, like the pineapple, and is made up of the ovaries of several individual flowers.berry

Berry (bĕrē`), former province, central France. Bourges, the capital, and Châteauroux are the chief towns. Cattle are raised on the Champagne Berrichonne, a semiarid plateau that covers most of the region. The valleys of the Indre and the Cher rivers are rich farming areas. A part of Roman Aquitaine, Berry was made a county in the 8th cent., and was purchased (1101) by the French crown. In 1360 it was made a duchy. It was held as an appanage by various royal princes until 1601, when it reverted to the crown.
