A tuber is a thickened underground part of a plant, like the potato, which stores nutrients.

塊莖是植物（如馬鈴薯）增厚的地下部分，可以儲存養分。

Potatoes are grown for their starchy tubers, which we commonly eat boiled, mashed, or fried.

種植馬鈴薯是為了獲得澱粉含量高的塊莖，我們通常將其煮熟、搗碎或油炸後食用。

Herbs, on the other hand, are typically used for their leaves, stems, or flowers and are valued for their flavor, aroma, or medicinal properties.

另一方面，草藥通常用於其葉、莖或花，因其味道、香氣或藥用價值而受到重視。

Potatoes don't fit this category because they're not used for these purposes and have a very different growth structure.

馬鈴薯不屬於這一類，因為它們不用於這些用途，生長結構也非常不同。

They're harvested primarily for their underground parts, which are very different from the leafy or aromatic plants we categorize as herbs.

它們的主要收穫對象是地下部分，與我們歸類為草藥的多葉或芳香植物截然不同。

So, potatoes are definitely vegetables, not herbs, even though they can be flavored with herbs when cooking.

是以，洋芋絕對是蔬菜，而不是香草，儘管烹飪時可以用香草調味。

Interesting, thank you.

有意思，謝謝。

I think I have the overall understanding of what herbs are.

我想我已經對草藥有了整體的瞭解。
