Hello my dear Marit ! Thank you so much for this new exercise.
Hi everybody!

Here is my work :
1- An equilateral parallelogram, other than a square. (h s m r b) 2 rhombus = losange.
2- A band or strip fastened to an edge of an article of clothing for strength or for ornament. ..... (l w t) 1 ( avec ces lettres, placées différemment, je n'ai trouvé que welt = vergetures, marque, papule, et wilt = se faner, s'affaiblir... qui ne correspondent pas du tout à la définition... une bande accrochée à la bordure d'un vêtement, pour le renforcer ou l'orner... j'ai pensé galon, extrafort, cordon, embase, bouton, cordelière, feston, renfort, ourlet, raccommoder, repriser... pas douée pour la couture !
3- A land left to its own natural growth and not planted with seeds. (l f w l) 2 fallow = en jachère.
4- To say definitely. (s t r s) 2 assert = déclarer que, revendiquer, affirmer que...
5- A dull brownish or greenish yellow. (k h k) kakhi = de couleur vert-jaune.
6- To push with something pointed; to poke. (r p d) 1 prod = aiguillonner, piquer, pousser du doigt, ou avec un bâton.
7- A short heavy stick. (c t n r h n) 3 trucheon = matraque.
8- To complain. (c r h g) 2 grouch = ronchonner, bougonner.
9- Friendly teasing. (t b r n) 2 banter = badiner, plaisanter.
10- A tool with a long, curved blade for cutting tall grass etc. (t c h s) 2 scythe = une faux.
Have a very sweet week!
See you soon.
