the quick swinging hammer inside a bell;
the tongue of an animal; a language or
dialect; a strip that protrudes along the edge
of a wooden board; somebody’s talking manner;
something shaped or moving to touch or lick;
to kiss another with the lips open;
the middle flap in the opening of a boot
or shoe; a narrow strip of land sticking
into sea, or lake, or river; to use the tongue
to block the flow of air on wind or brass
instruments, keeping one note from another
and the tongue touching the inside of the other
person’s mouth; the power of speech; fleshy;
the vibrating end of a reed in a wind instrument;
the pivoting pin in buckles used to taste,
licking, swallowing, that hits against the bell,
inside, to make the sound, to make one half
of a tongue-and-groove joint of most humans;
the pole at the front of carriages, to which
the harnesses are attached, which is designed
to fit into a corresponding groove
