Here are a baker's dozen (well, a metric bakers dozen) of defs by our
players.With the dictionary def that make a real dozen of items to chose
from. Now your job is to decide which is the definition tickles your
fancy as likely to be the true one

Vote for TWO definitions, as a public forum or group message (in reply
to this one), before the deadline which is
12:00 BST (midday) on Tuesday, 01 Aug 2017 in the UK and suitable
other times in the locations where you are

New Players are welcome, even if you didn't submit a definition you may
vote.

1. déjá vu

2. a charmed life

3. writer's block

4. a hunch; an inspiration

5. a widely accepted heretical belief

6. a view of different parts of the world

7. a dull person who dominates dinner-table conversation

8. a realistic painting of a town scene but the town is imaginary

9. a record or diagram showing the relationships of the manuscripts of
a literary work

10. in philosophy, a proposition that is considered morally or ethically
superior to its alternatives

11. an illustration that represents a complex concept in such a way a

12. [Maritime Law] a precept that any bill of lading implicitly
contains a guarantee by the shipper that the material is not contraband
in any place which the means of transportation may enter, and that
violation thereof places the shipper at risk not only for such cargo,
but for any delays in use of the means of transportation, and for the
full cost of replacement of such means of transportation

I could swear I’ve voted for 1 before.Â* But I can’t see having two latin phrases for the same thing so I’ll vote instead for 5 and 8, both reasons to believe something that maybe ain’t so.
