Funny how apply and apples are almost identical

Yes, a good example of how dangerous it is to go by appearences.
The "apply" is from the Latin (applicare), perhaps through the French
("appliquer") , while "apple" is from the OE (cf Dutch "appel", German
"Apfel"). These words have nothing in common except parts of the spelling.
