(1) Achene. A small hard indehiscent fruit. The term is strictly only applied to those formed from one carpel, but is sometimes used for those formed from two carpels (e.g. the fruit of the Compositae). The latter is better termed a cypsela.
(2) Nut. This is similar to an achene, but is typically formed from two or three carpels (e.g. dock fruit).
Achenes are not nuts.

It is strictly only applied to ones with one carpel, but is used anyway to refer to ones with two carpels? That’s not confusing at all
Also, even if they were, it wouldn’t make the strawberry a nut. It would make it covered in nuts.
Thank you! 👏
