Have you ever played the game in which you try to describe something in words only -without using any gestures—and other people have to work out what you are describing? How would you describe a horse or a television? This dictionary describes a horse as follows: *a big, four-legged animal with hooves, a long mane and a tail, which can be used for riding or for pulling things like carts and plows'. The television is described as 'a box-shaped instrument that receives programs that have been broadcast, and shows them on a screen as moving pictures with sound.
