Default Re: [Dixonary] Round 3246: ALMISTRY [Call for Votes]

In honour of my late father-in-law, who did an apprenticeship in the family
tanning business before becoming a pilot, i'll vote for 4, and, because it
might be Arabic, I'll go for 10.

  4. The art or process of converting skins into leather; tanning.

10. In Islam, a theological concept understood only by advanced
scholars [from Arabic *al*, the; and *mistar,* hidden].

I'll go for the believable 5 and 11:

> 5. The practice of foretelling the future or the course of future events.


> 11. A name given to theories emerging in the late twentieth century drawing ideas from both historical alchemy and traditional medicine, and also owing something to New Age ideas [from alchemy+ chemistry]. *
