英语词汇“legume”的英英意思、用法、释义、翻译、读音、例句、短语、词组-英语词典

A legume is not your regular type of fruit; it's more like a pod. Peas, beans, and peanuts are all examples of legumes.

A legume is a type of food that comes from a specific type of plant that is also called a legume. Legumes come from the family Leguminosae, and a trait all legumes share is that they grow in a type of pod. A bowl of pea soup is full of legumes, and so is a bag of peanuts. Lentils, soy, and clover are all legumes. Legumes are high in protein and not very fatty, so they are generally considered healthy.
