pepinon.

Brit.

/pɛˈpiːnəʊ/, U.S.

/pəˈpinoʊ/

Origin: A borrowing from Spanish. Etymon: Spanish pepino.

Etymology: < Spanish pepino (1380–5 in sense ‘cucumber’, 1752 in a text from Puerto Rico in sense 2) < pepón melon (although this is first attested later: mid 16th cent. or earlier; < classical Latin pepōn- , pepō pepon n.) + Spanish -ino -ine suffix⁴, pepón being interpreted as an augmentative form (compare -oon suffix).

1. The small, elongated melon-like fruit of the tropical shrub Solanum muricatum (family Solanaceae), having a yellow skin with purplish patches and yellow flesh; the plant itself, which is native to south and central America but widely cultivated elsewhere for this fruit.

1850 J. S. Jenkins U.S. Exploring Exped.: Voy. of Exploring Squadron 144 The pepino, or Peruvian cucumber, a fruit produced by a small plant grown in the fields, the pulp of which is solid, juicy, and highly-flavored.

1890 Garden & Forest 3 471/2 The Pepo of Peru..is probably identical with the Pepino of Central America.

1922 Bull. Guam Agric. Exper. Station 2 47 The pepino has many characteristics common to both the cucumber and the musk melon.

1980 Ann. Appl. Biol. 94 61 Pepino mosaic virus..was found in fields of pepino (Solanum muricatum) in the Canete valley in coastal Peru.

2. Physical Geography. A small, steep, conical hill characteristic of tropical and subtropical karstic regions, esp. in Puerto Rico. Also pepino hill. Cf. hum n.⁴, mogote n. 2.
