Default [Dixonary] Round 3212: INDAGATE [Call for votes]

Round 3212: INDAGATE [Call for votes] After a somewhat fraught definition phase, I am now happy to present 14 definitions of indagate. Some of them have come from players’ imaginations, some have come from dictionaries, and one even comes from a dictionary article about the word indagate. Please vote for the ones that appeal to you: vote early, vote twice, in reply to this post, by the deadline, which is Tuesday 30 November 21h30 CET, or earlier if all submitters get their votes in before that.

 1. [Catalan] Mount Etna.
 2. A hermaphrodite penguin.
 3. To save up, as for future use.
 4. Shaped like a paw, said of some leaves.
 5. Scottish. An uninteresting topic of conversation.
 6. Filtration process used in the food services industry to filter, clean and recycle cooking oil.
 7. A type of gate formerly used in cattle ranching, functioning like a valve, allowing cattle into a pen but not back out of it.
 8. A logic circuit whose output is True if all its inputs are True or if at most one is False. [acronym of independent nor-dependent and gate, from an early implementation].
 9. An incompletely dominant coat color pattern characterized by irregularly shaped patches of diluted pigment and solid color.
10. A red gemstone; basically agate colored by indium bromide.
11. Bot. Of leaves: smooth, lacking indentations.
12. A nondescript, a something-or-other.
13. To search into, investigate.
14. Foul, abusive language.

I love the visual order.
I'll go for the leaves (4 and 11).

Default [Dixonary] Round 3212: INDAGATE [Call for votes]

I can't think why Catalan should have a different name for Etna, but it's
so unlikely that I'll vote for it, alomg with the vague somthing-or-other:
1 and 12 please.

 1. [Catalan] Mount Etna.

12. A nondescript, a something-or-other.
