Fig \Fig\, n. [F. figue the fruit of the tree, Pr. figa, fr. L.
   ficus fig tree, fig. Cf. {Fico}.]
   1. (Bot.) A small fruit tree ({Ficus Carica}) with large

      native from Syria westward to the Canary Islands.

   2. The fruit of a fig tree, which is of round or oblong
      shape, and of various colors.

   Note: The fruit of a fig tree is really the hollow end of a
         stem, and bears numerous achenia inside the cavity.
         Many species have little, hard, inedible figs, and in
         only a few does the fruit become soft and pulpy. The
         fruit of the cultivated varieties is much prized in its
         fresh state, and also when dried or preserved. See
         {Caprification}.

   {Fig gnat} (Zo["o]l.), a small fly said to be injurious to
      figs.

      clothing of Adam and Eve (Genesis iii.7), a covering for a
      thing that ought to be concealed; esp., an inadequate
      covering; a symbol for affected modesty.

   {Fig marigold} (Bot.), the name of several plants of the
      genus {Mesembryanthemum}, some of which are prized for the
      brilliancy and beauty of their flowers.

   {Fig tree} (Bot.), any tree of the genus {Ficus}, but
      especially {F. Carica} which produces the fig of commerce.

Fig \Fig\, v. t. [See {Fico}, {Fig}, n.]
   1. To insult with a fico, or contemptuous motion. See {Fico}.
