That's easy for a French speaker. It means annoyance as a noun and to irritate or to sharply stimulate as a verb. "Piquer" means to sting as does a bee.

New word: "Narwhal"

It's good planting dirt. Stuff grows well in it.

Along a similar track, new word: "Legumes".

Not sure if this counts, as I am not certain the actual characteristics of the plant family, but the legume family includes peas, beans, and peanuts. Not certain if all legumes have seeds in-line surrounded by a sheath or not.

I ain't choosy, or should I say picky when speaking of beans, ha ha.

Your choice of animal, vegetable, or mineral.

It means a seven sided two dimensional figure.


Please recall that definitions of words must NOT use the word to be defined in any of its forms as part of the definition. "Charismatic" is an example . I'm willing to let it slide, or I can define it myself.
It means having an ineffable quality that compels people to follow the person who has that quality.

New word: "abide" .

abide can mean to reside or to condone: IE "I can't abide rude behavior" (I can't stand/handle/condone rude behavior") or "Where they abide" (IE where they live) or "abide by the rules" (live by or follow the rules)
