Here are 11 definitions for the word ZIMOCCA shared exactly as I received them, but only one is correct. Please send your votes by responding to the Dixonary group with what you believe are two definitions most likely to have come from a dictionary before the deadline, which is TUESDAY, JUNE 23, 2025, at 7 P.m. Eastern Time or the corresponding time where you live! https://www.timeanddate.com Any misspellings, weird spacing, etc., are my fault and not an indication of the accuracy of a particular definition.

Good luck!

 The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the One and only Son, Who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
John 1:14

Not sure why 8 and 11 were not combined, and not being able to choose between them, I'll vote for both.

I'll go for 4 and 9, but it's probably 6 or one of the coffees.

                4. A sample packet of spice, dye, or grain used to judge a merchant's lot.
                9. Special garments worn only during a Hadj.
