Sparked by James
via Greene's essay
on the young Dickens.
The word I didn't know,
I looked up:
the skin of an animal or plant,
a wrap,
from Latin tegere to cover.
Tegument
a good word for 'a word
you have to look up.'
For the verb:
tegumentalize,
tegument,
no,
give short 'teg' a go.
Without you're a Scotsman,
'craig' and 'aboon' you may have to teg
in 'the craig lies aboon the leg.'
