Oops! In the back of my mind, the deadline was 9 p.m. (busy day today), so I never sent a definition. <sigh>

 

I'll reward the following (who obviously did send a definition!):

1. An old person 

and

3. A senior lady politician [Swahili] 

as being sort of similar.

[John Barrs]

 7 and 11 are similar but then so are 1 and 3 so I will go for something other half way between each pair

#2 and #9 please

I see I am the last to vote, and the deadline is minutes away. In haste, 1 and 2. And no, I’m not pretending to have read them all.
