As a student of linguistics and German who has been living in Germany for a year or so, I find the translation here to be a little inaccurate. Literally Erdapfel means earth-apple (Erde = earth, Apfel = apple). However, the word Erdapfel actually referrs to a potato (Kartoffel in High German) in many dialects of German. Can anyone back up that this is perhaps what is really meant? Guypersonson 05:57, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
