Q. What is a different name for ash wood?

Answer

Fraxinus is another name for ash wood or plant. Like other similarly named hardwoods like cherry, oak, walnut, and maple, ash is a valuable construction material. In contrast, softwoods such as pine, fir, and cedar are frequently used in the woodworking industry. "Keys" or "helicopter seeds” are common names for the seeds of the samara fruit. Some Fraxinus species are dioecious, with male and female blooms on distinct plants. The generic name, "birch," comes from a proto-Indo-European term, while the common English name, "ash," comes from the Old English aesc, which is related to the proto-Indo-European for the tree.
