What first definition/pronunciation that comes to your mind for the following:
Bow
Tear
Lead
Refuse
Content
Desert
Wind
Minute
Bow--like what's in Clara's hair in the Nutcracker.
Tear--as in a ship's sail if something goes awry in the America's Cup or Volvo Ocean Race.
Lead--what that jacket thing is made of that protects you during an x-ray
Refuse--waste
Content--what's within something
Desert--Anza Borrego, Sonora, Sahara, Gobi, etc.
Wind--what those slowmoving propellers on posts generate power from
Minute--small, insignificant, maybe
