Ülevaade
Tomat (Solanum lycopersicum) on maavitsaliste sugukonda kuuluv taim, mille vilju tarbitakse laialdaselt kogu maailmas. Botaaniliselt on tomat mari, kuid kulinaarses mõttes liigitatakse see köögiviljaks. Eestis on tomat üks populaarsemaid aedvilju, mida kasvatatakse nii kasvuhoonetes kui ka avamaal.
Kasutusmustrid
Sõna 'tomat' käändub vastavalt lause kontekstile. Ainsuse nimetav on 'tomat', ainsuse omastav 'tomati' ja ainsuse osastav 'tomatit'. Mitmuses kasutatakse vorme 'tomatid', 'tomatite' ja 'tomateid'. Tomatit kasutatakse lausetes tavaliselt toiduaine või koostisosana, näiteks 'Lõikasin tomati tükkideks'.
Üldised kontekstid
Tomatit kohtab igapäevaselt toidupoes, turul ja köögis. See on lahutamatu osa paljudest Eesti roogadest, nagu toorsalatid, võileivad või pitsakate. Samuti on levinud kodune hoidistamine, kus tomatitest tehakse mahla, ketšupit või marineeritud hoidiseid.
Sarnaste sõnade võrdlus
Tomatit aetakse mõnikord segamini kurgiga, mis on samuti populaarne salatiköögivili. Erinevalt kurgist on tomatil tugevam happesus ja spetsiifiline lõhn. Teine sarnane termin on 'tomatipasta', mis viitab töödeldud kontsentraadile, mitte värskele viljale.
