A tropical fruit with green or yellow skin, soft pink or white flesh, and small seeds, commonly eaten fresh or used to make juice, jam, and paste.
Where the word comes from
Guava comes from Spanish *guayaba*, which the Spanish borrowed from Arawakan languages of the Caribbean, likely from *guayaba* or a similar form used by indigenous peoples of the region. The fruit was unknown to Europeans before contact with the Americas, so the word traveled from the New World languages to Spanish and then into English and other European languages.
