English lessons the Lit way

[de_valmont]

The need is obvious: I was not sure about the term "runner", looked it up, and confronted the female Litster with one definition on urbandictionary.com that included some derogative terms. You see, I was totally innocent but she blamed me (and maybe did not get the irony intended).

So please let's define every day words the Lit way. I start by an example:

Bush, noun. A piece of vegetation almost always smelling deliciously, sometimes trimmed to a form, sometimes just growing wild and nice. Sometimes it's hard to get through to the core when the bush blooms, but that play is fun too.


I am sure you US people will be better in that game than I am.
