Orangs
Where I learnt English as second language, these are oranges. And our teacher always said "an Orange" -- not "a". The voweld a, e, i, o & u should preceed with "an"
Acturally these are called Citrus where I live at present
Which fruits are citrus?
There are many different types of citrus fruits, but some of the most common include oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, mandarins, tangerines, pomelos, and kumquats.

Let's talk about fruit for a moment. Like the body, an orange has parts. These parts have been isolated and labeled by the people who study them.
The outside of the orange is the epicarp (also known as the rind). The epicarp is made up of an epidermis, hypodermal parenchymatous calls, and oil glands. Raise your hand if you’ve ever squirted orange oil mist into your face while peeling an orange!
Connecting the rind to the meat of the orange (and the orange segments to each other) is the pith or albedo. (Alba=white.)
Beneath the pith is the endocarp -- the part of the orange we eat. Each individually wrapped section of the orange meat is called a carpel.

So, now that I've mauled this poor orange, let me explain my point. Or points. . . . .
