Etymology
Strawberry comes from Old English parts straw and berry, and a helpful way to remember it is that it may have meant berries 'strewn' on the ground (from 'to strew') or berries kept on 'straw' to protect them. So the name fits the low plant and its fruit, which sit near the soil and have small seeds on the outside.
