Limes (Latin; sg., pl.: limites) is a term used primarily for the Germanic border defence or delimiting system of Ancient Rome marking the borders of the Roman Empire. [1] [2] The term has been extended in modern times to refer to the frontier defences in other parts of the empire, such as in the east and in Africa.
[20] [21] In Spanish and Italian today lima means lime fruit. In bygone centuries in Spanish and Italian lima meant also lime-lemon varieties distinct from today's lime. Pedro de Alcalá's Spanish-Arabic dictionary year 1505 translated the Spanish lima as Arabic lim. [21] Today in English "lime" has become a color-name as well as a fruit.
