Presented forthwith are 10 definitions for FINEER, nine of which are the objects of players’ imaginations and one of which came from a reputable dictionary.
I’ll set a 36-hour deadline which is noon on Friday PDT, 3pm EDT, 19:00 UTC, 8pm BST, 9pm CEST, and Saturday 5am AEST and 7am NZST.Â* Seems we have more time zones than players these days… 1. decoration on the top of a gable or spire. 2. Patent leather (orig. a trademark). 3. Fermented goat cheese. 4. Flexible veneer. 5. Obs. veneer. 6. A blur in printing, as from a double impression. 7. An Indonesian dessert made with coconut milk, rice flour, and pandan leaves, also called bubur sum-sum. 8. The fashion effect the 18th-century Beau Monde male wanted to achieve with little effort or nonchalance. 9. Now arch. and rare. 1. trans. To wipe away; to wipe clean, cleanse. Also occas. intr. 2. trans. fig. To purge. 10. To run in debt by getting goods made up in a way unsuitable for the use of others, and then threatening not to take them except on credit. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Dixonary" group.

After eliminating all the others, I'm left with 3 and 7. It probably isn't either of those, either, but that's life.

I’m not convinced it’s similar to paneer or a type of veneer, but nothing
else is believable either. I'll vote 1 & 9.

I'll try 2 and 9 (although 9 is probably the Keating def).
2. Patent leather (orig. a trademark). 9. *Now arch. and rare.* 1. *trans.* To wipe away; to wipe clean, cleanse. Also *occas. intr.* 2. *trans. fig.* To purge. -- Tim L > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Dixonary" group.
