I'm voting for 1 & 9, because this word gave me the jitters.

If it is 11, I'm going to be very upset with the state of English
transliteration. Japanese is super straightforward and doesn't deserve to
be sullied with the poor state of English spelling.

1 Slightly anxious.

Maybe I'm #1, which is why I waited this long to vote. Maybe the whole list is #5 despite Shani's claim that one is correct. Maybe my brain is not #3.

Despite all those possibilities, I'll try the longest of the food definitions: 12 and 13.
