Exactly what Annie meant, but when readers have to use a dictionary to understand my stories, I have failed to communicate.

Unfortunately for me, pelf has the exact meaning I wanted.

Personally, I thought the meaning was clear from the context, but then, I had seen the word before. :p

Explaining a word to someone who didn't get the meaning from context is just easier with google than trying to word an adequate definition myself.
