That literally reads "apple's fruits" or "fruits of the apple."  I 
conjecture then that {'epIl} refers to the tree itself, then?

That would make {'epIl Hap} "applewood" and {'epIl HIq} "(hard) cider."  
I suppose applesauce would come out {tapbogh 'epIl naHmey}.

mubel 'epIl naHmey wIb 'ej mubelqu' 'epIl HIq wIq!  HIvje'mey yIjuS!
