I’ll go for 15 and 16, the next two defs not listed since you clearly didn’t include the real one.
Or if that’s not allowed, I guess I’ll start at the beginning and pick the first two that amuse me to any degree, which means 1 (latin) and 3 (formerly).

Judy -
Not a vote, quite yet, but the time zone converter link in your message isn't specific to any one time zone. Can you confirm that the 9 am you gave us is in your home zone of U.S. EDT, or tell us which time zone you meant?
Thanks,
Efrem

Here are 14 definitions for the word OAKUS -- but only one is correct.

The deadline for voting is Friday, November 1, at 9 a.m. http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc
Any misspellings, weird spacing, etc., are my fault and not an indication of the accuracy of a particular definition.
Good luck!
