Hello everyone, and greetings from beautiful Slovenia!
 
Below, you will find a nice collection of eleven totally fake
definitions for CHAPPAL, doing their best to hide the real one that is
among them. Will you find the right one?
 
Please post a reply to this message to the group, indicating the two (2)
definitions that you fancy the most. Its originators will get points ...
or you will, if you zoomed in on the right one!
Make sure to do this before the deadline, which will be a bit over 24
hours after posting this message: December 6, 17:00 CET. Click here
<https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to?iso=20251206T17&p0=16&msg=Voting+for+Dixonary+round+3603&font=slab&csz=1>for
a countdown.
 
Good luck!
 
Cheers,
Hugo
 
1    A desert shrub-land with high fire resistant properties.
2    A feathered headdress worn by ritual dancers during midsummer
ceremonies in rural Mongolia.
3    A fringed shawl, usu. embroidered.
4    A gathering place for members of the Ethical Humanist movement.
5    A herb from the creosote bush, traditionally used for pain and
inflammation.
6    A kind of grain storage found in the pueblos of New Mexico,
consisting of a natural or man-made cave closed off by a wall of adobe
[Tiwa].
7    A mountainous grassland landscape.
8    A shrubland plant community shaped by a Mediterranean climate.
9    In India,  a shelter for homeless or unwanted cattle.
10    Obs. An escape.
11    One of a pair of sandals, usually of leather, worn in India.
12    The part of a Western saddle behind the horn that protects the
rider's thighs from the stirrup rigging and leathers.

Ignoring the two that look like definitions of chaparral, I'll have 3 and
12, please.
Best wishes, Tim B.
