<human>:  What is the derivation of the name "Apple"?
<bot>: The term “Apple” originated from the Middle English word “appel”, which in turn was derived from the Old French “apel” or “apfel”, from the Latin “malum” (“apple” or “fruit”). The Latin “malum” can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European root “meli”, which literally translates to “honey-sweet”.
