Default [Dixonary] ROUND 2933 - SINAPISM - VOTE NOW!

Here are 16 definitions (WOW!) for the word SINAPISM but only one is correct. Please send your votes (by responding to this email) for what you believe are two possible definitions most likely to have come from a dictionary. The deadline for voting is Saturday, October 27, at 9 a.m. As usual, I will let you determine the time in your time zone. :-)

Any misspellings, weird spacing, etc., are my fault and not an indication of the accuracy of a particular definition.

Good luck!

1. a brain seizure.
2. a cognitive-behavioral methodology which utilizes brainwave pattern analysis to remap neural pathways and habitualize pro-social behaviors.
3. a compulsion to ask for verbal confirmation that instructions are understood.
4. a neurological condition that causes a person to grimace involuntarily.
5. a style of sculpture characterized by bulbous figural posturing and facial features, originally inspired by ancient pre-Columbian Central American clay figurines.
6. a trope associated with Chinese or pseudo-Chinese dialect.
