[Dixonary] Round 1641: OTHERKIN - Defs up!

[Dodi Schultz]

You've clearly forgotten to include the actual, dictionary definition but,
hey, that's completely understandable, given your unfortunate injury. Ouch!
Hope you feel very much better very soon, Hugo!

Looking forward to seeing the real def on Monday. Meanwhile, points to the
authors of #4 and #12.

Sorry to hear about your back. Been there, done that -- and it's not fun. <sigh>

2. a kind of leather shin-guard [O.E.]

5. adderwort or snakeweed, a plant (_Polygornum bistorta_) of the dock family with twisted rootstock.

IOW, I have no clue!

5 and 12 sound kinda dictionary-like.

Rats! I missed the def deadline but what the heck! I never (well, almost
never) get a D0 anyway, I'll go for one "wee person" and one law of
relationships: 6 and 17 for me this time.
