Default [Dixonary] Round 2796: please vote: INOSCULATE

We have a plumber's dozen submissions*, (including one from a dictionary --
triple checked! --) and so it is time to select your choices and choose
your selections.

You may vote even if you are brand new to the game, vote for two numbers by
reply to this email before the voting deadline, which is 6PM (1800) on
Friday, 21 April, 2017 C.E.: US Central Time Zone (Texas, y'all!) or the
corresponding time in your local time zone. (Might be pushed a just little
since it is the end of the banker's hours workweek!)

If, upon perusing the list, you are sure that you can see the real
definition, PLEASE do not vote.

(*notoriously less generous than bakers.)

I vote for 1 and 6.

Guerri
P.S. in nitpicking mode: we can all "see" the real definition, unless,
of course, you left it out.

I don't like any of them, even mine -- so I'll just vote for 1 and 2.

On perusing the list, I’m sure I can see the real definition.Â*



I’m also sure I can see eleven fakes.Â* I’m just not sure which is which, so I’ll vote.



It’s probably either coming together and kissing.Â* Or not.



I’ll let pop culture decide my vote: The Beatles Come Together song popped into my head the moment I read #4.Â* And Never Been Kissed was a halfway decent movie when I was younger so #11 gets my other vote.

True, but the words leading up to that matter ... "If...you are sure
that you can...". I do need to re-word that one.
I didn't leave it out this time. It's there. Waving at you imperceptibly!

Perhaps it should be "identify" rather than "see." We can all see it. We just can't (usually) identify it.

clearly some of you know a lot more about kissing than I do. I'll vote for
3 & 7.

The meanings of 4 and 10 seem vaguely related.
