Definitions

  1. two- to three-inch tropical fruit with juicy flesh suggestive of both peaches and pineapples

Word origin

Borrowed from Dutch mangosteen (“mangosteen”), from Malay manggustan ~ manggista ~ manggistan fusing manggis hutan “jungle manggis” applied to Garcinia hombroniana or G. malaccensis; manggis is a generic word applied to other related garcinias like above and Garcinia penangiana (manggis burung). Not related to mango, though this may have influenced the spelling and pronunciation.
