definition: A cucumber is a long fruit with green skin. Because it is not sweet, we usually call a cucumber a vegetable. Cucumbers are white inside, and there are often seeds that you can eat. We usually don't cook cucumbers. We often eat them in salads with other vegetables.
My aunt grows cucumbers in her garden, and I found out that cucumbers grow on vines.
