Etymology[edit]
Noun[edit]
yewberry (plural yewberries)
- The berry of the yew tree.
- 1895, The Boy's Own Annual, volume 18, page 587:
- Indeed the form, as well as the foliage of the shrub — it is not worthy of being called a tree — is very like that of a Yew. The fruit, when ripe, is the same colour and size, and has about as much taste as a Yewberry.
