A nut is made of a void solid shell and a seed, which is usually edible. In general use, dried seeds are called various kinds of nuts, but in a botanical context, "nuts" mean that the shell is not open to release the seed (indehiscent). Translation of "nuts" in certain languages often requires word, because the term is vague
Most of the seeds come from fruit which normally free themselves from the shell, not like hegelts, chestnuts and acon nut, which arises from the hard shell walls and a compound bob. The general and original use of the term is less restrictive, and many nut like potatoes, Pecan, pistachio, walnut, and Brazil nut, are not nut in a botanical sense. Common usage of the term is often hard-handed , Referred to as a nut is edible kernel.
