1 lemma pos cefr_level coverage_rank context_sentence context_sentence_zh definition_zh
2 statue numb Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3201 Along one wall stood a gigantic statue, fifteen feet or more, dressed in a heavy leather jacket, trimmed in fur and set with spiked metal plates and heavy iron rings. Master Wink-and-Slap twisted his face at her again and gave a breathless burst of laughter, his throat no doubt numb from the drink.
3 dramatically tow Adverb Noun UNKNOWN 3202 He resisted, and the hematite receded dramatically, almost forcing him from the trance. Cat caught the word "whore," and then she was not surprised to see Graevis, several of the other regulars in tow, crossing the room, their faces suddenly grim.
4 gruesome inspired Adjective UNKNOWN 3203 Spurred by the gruesome sight, she attacked fiercely. The young woman made her way around the back of the inn, down a dark alley that inspired no fear, and up a gutter, to the one section of Fellowship Way's roof that was not slanted.
5 coat mast Noun UNKNOWN 3204 Its limbs were slender and long and its armor a silver shining coat of fine interlocking links. Then came the long journey, tagging along with a merchant caravan that had swapped crafted items to the people of the small frontier village in exchange for pelts and great trees that would be used as masts for the sailing ships built in Palmaris.
6 similarly exist Adverb Verb UNKNOWN 3205 He calmed quickly, though, seeing that all of his classmates were similarly entranced and that the Father Abbot and the other ranking monks seemed not to care. Did such a thing as the Halo even exist, or was her memory a mere fantasy?
7 accomplishment slug Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3206 And, in the end, it is a sense of accomplishment, of purpose, and not the wealth attained by such accomplishment, that equates to fulfillment and happiness. She slapped away his grabbing hands, then slugged him twice in the face.
8 fewer channel Adjective Verb UNKNOWN 3207 Every passing day, danger from the goblins seemed more and more remote; every passing day, fewer and fewer men and women went out of the town to walk a patrol. She let all the tears and all the unanswered screams come out, channeled them into a level of violence that the drunk could not have foreseen.
9 wariness gag Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3208 For the adults, the specter of the goblins brought a sobering wariness and then a troublesome distraction. It was a dagger, small but nasty, and thrown perfectly to hit the gagged and bound woman right in the throat, just under her jawbone.
10 realm salute Noun UNKNOWN 3209 Even Elbryan, who would be entering the realm of adults that coming spring, had spent almost all the previous week with his head up a dirty chimney. "Some hero I prove to be," the man said, bringing his sword back in a salute to the young woman.
11 respectfully rooftop Adverb Noun UNKNOWN 3210 Each of this group nodded respectfully at his younger counterparts as he passed them on the rim; some mentioned that Elbryan's patrols would serve as their vital liaison with the village proper. It was up on that rooftop, under a sky that was streaked by clouds and stars, that Connor first mentioned the prospect of marriage.
12 compliment righteousness Noun UNKNOWN 3211 After that exchange of compliments, even the passing of endless uneventful hours could not dampen the thrill for the youngsters. Were the fifteen Holy Orders of God, the rules of righteousness, truly God inspired, or were they merely rules of keeping order within a civilized society?
13 team civilize Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3212 Elbryan continued his diligent work, though, reorganizing the routes to cover more ground since he was down to three teams of five, with a couple of messengers. Were the fifteen Holy Orders of God, the rules of righteousness, truly God inspired, or were they merely rules of keeping order within a civilized society?
14 uneventfully formally Adverb UNKNOWN 3213 Another week passed by uneventfully. She had no idea how to proceed - Avelyn had not formally trained her with this most dangerous of stones - but she knew that she must try.
15 crumble charter Verb UNKNOWN 3214 Elbryan was watching his first command crumbling about him, his soldiers being taken away so that they could help patch roofs or shore up barns. Avelyn and Thagraine had been formally named as the Preparers, the two monks who would leave the chartered ship and go onto the island of Pimaninicuit to collect and prepare the stones, while Quintall and Pellimar would remain aboard, going onto the island only should one of the chosen pair falter.
16 sympathize leverage Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3215 Brother Justice understood this, though he hardly sympathized. The man was impossibly strong, his stocky frame and low center of gravity giving him the leverage he needed to punish Avelyn endlessly.
17 luster unsettling Noun UNKNOWN 3216 Elbryan had that same impish quality about him as Mather, a love and luster of life, lurking just below the surface. Elbryan lifted his eyes at that unsettling notion, looked at the sky as if he expected the dactyl demon to be swooping upon him even then.
18 absolutely ferocious Adverb Adjective UNKNOWN 3217 Markwart needed to be absolutely certain. When she wouldn't - couldn't - tell him anything about the staff-wielding stranger who had intervened in the inn, the ferocious monk had beaten her again, and now one of her eyes was swollen closed.
19 dizzy disease Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3218 He felt warm suddenly, a bit dizzy, a bit frightened. He feared that the bear was in the grip of some disease, perhaps, or was wounded.
20 thrilled isle Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3219 Elbryan was terrified and thrilled all at once. What Avelyn focused on, therefore, was the destination, the isle itself.
21 dearest cease Adjective Verb UNKNOWN 3220 This was his Pony, his dearest friend, the girl - no, the young woman - whom he had grown to love. Even after the showers ceased, the pair would have to wait some time before handling the heated stones, and then the work would be too furious and desperate to pause and contemplate God.
22 urgency supporting Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3221 The kiss shifted, from curiosity to urgency, then back to gentleness. Elbryan countered by letting go of his staff with his top hand, rolling it under the blocking arm, then grabbing it and sweeping low for the monk's supporting leg.
23 warmer stud Adjective Verb UNKNOWN 3222 Though the air was chill, Elbryan had the feeling he would be warmer without them. And the dactyl made even finer protection for its four chieftains, great magical bracers, studded with spikes, that would protect the wearer from the blows of any weapon.
24 shocked garment Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3223 Other people walked into the small clearing then, dirty, many with wounds, and all with that hollow, shocked expression showing that they had just come through hell. His hand came up and unlaced her cloak; and she let the garment drop without protest, cool air on her skin.
25 formerly crop Adverb Verb UNKNOWN 3224 The creature flexed its great wings and settled back in the throne it had shaped from the obsidian that had formerly served as its tomb. He was dirty and gray, his hair cropped short and badly trimmed, and his beard untended.
26 unreal execute Adjective Verb UNKNOWN 3225 It was too unreal, too beyond their experience and expectations. Adjonas watched it all anxiously, moving along the rail as his ship executed a turn.
27 expectation glisten Plural Verb UNKNOWN 3226 It was too unreal, too beyond their experience and expectations. The ceremony began before dawn, intensified as the sun glistened on the horizon across the waters, then went on and on, one prayer after another, each song louder than the previous.
28 fatal curt Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3227 Avelyn meant to turn him over, but he could not find his breath when he looked at the fatal wound, a gaping hole smashed right through Thagraine's skull, brain matter splattered all about. Adjonas gave a curt nod, and Quintall paced by him, the other three monks in tow.
29 grayish skittish Adjective UNKNOWN 3228 Elbryan saw the bright red gash, the white of split bone, the grayish brain. And to a deer, perhaps the most skittish creature of all ...
30 labored twitch Verb Gerund UNKNOWN 3229 Elbryan felt his guts churning and labored for his breath. The deer's head came up, ears twitching, scanning; Elbryan's smile vanished.
31 sob vanish Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3230 She took a moment to consider where she was, whose house this was, and she stifled a sob. The deer's head came up, ears twitching, scanning; Elbryan's smile vanished.
32 raging phrase Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3231 "No time for that," she scolded herself, and she focused on the battle raging on the road. The young man knew all the word's, all the common phrases, now, after five years in Andur'Blough Inninness, and only his inflections still needed perfecting.
33 sag uneven Verb Adjective UNKNOWN 3232 The young man shifted to a sitting position and sagged on the wet ground. Elbryan was expected to bathe daily, to keep his clothing clean, and since his beard was splotchy and uneven, not yet that of a man, to keep his face clean shaven.
34 anymore elude Adverb Verb UNKNOWN 3233 There were no lines of defense anymore, no organized pockets of resistance. Elbryan held steady his breath, paying close attention, for though he could understand the melodic language, many individual words might elude him if he was not careful.
35 grotesque stealth Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3234 Dots of red, like grotesque chicken pox, covered the giant's face and arms. He forgot all about his game of surprising the pair then, and used his stealth ability to extract himself from the area, return to his tree house - which was closer to the ground than the sky - to shave and to prepare himself for his next sparring session, one he suddenly intended to win.
36 charging fury Noun UNKNOWN 3235 As it rounded the corner, the girl snapped back her elbow with all her strength, catching the charging creature right under the chin. "And you," Elbryan answered, and on he came, full of fury and determination.
37 lad clockwise Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3236 The call brought the sprinting lad to a skidding halt. He had to anticipate, and so he did, flipping his spear over one hand counterclockwise and then back again, then again clockwise, then back the other way.
38 vomit pressing Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3237 Elbryan grimaced, and Carley whimpered and nearly vomited, when Elbryan's hand brushed against the broken tip of a spear jutting from Carley's side. At this point, Tallareyish was playing white, pressing the attack, but Elbryan meant to reverse that.
39 pointy reasonable Adjective UNKNOWN 3238 The ugly goblin face, all twisted teeth and long pointy nose, was barely inches from Elbryan's face, and closer still when the creature began to butt the boy. The fellow had his huge axe out in front of him, and if Elbryan couldn't offer a reasonable answer, there was little doubt what he meant to do with it.
40 butt diva Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3239 He pulled her hands out wide, and she used the opening to head-butt him again. Something daring, even desperate, like the shadow dive Tallareyish had used to defeat him.
41 brutally timing Adverb Noun UNKNOWN 3240 Elbryan at first tried to defend himself but when that seemed futile, went on the offensive instead, brutally turning and twisting his blade. "You executed the plant of your staff on hip perfectly, and your step timing was without error.
42 wrought permanent Verb Adjective UNKNOWN B2 3241 He crawled out from under the thing, but kept on attacking it, savagely, primally, his blows wrought of sheer terror. Elbryan had come to think of his life with the elves as a permanent arrangement, had figured that he would live in Andur'Blough Inninness for the rest of his mortal days.
43 overrule greeting Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3242 Wisdom overruled his rage, though, and he stayed hidden and let them pass. Again, he was more than polite, the perfect gentleman, not pressuring Cat to even so much as offer a greeting to him.
44 buzz slyly Verb Adverb UNKNOWN 3243 The whole village had buzzed about the house because Olwan Wyndon was laying a stone foundation. Cat-the-Stray tried to ignore the whispers and the sidelong glances, but even Pettibwa, cheery cheeked and grinning slyly, caught Cat's gaze and nodded her head in the man's direction more than once.
45 swiped contemptuously Verb Adverb UNKNOWN 3244 A third soldier drew sword and swiped out one of the table legs, bringing the friar tumbling down atop the poor second man who had been reaching for him. "Cat-the-Stray is her name," Grady said, eyeing the young woman somewhat contemptuously.
46 battles heartily Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3245 But the giant had seen the move dozens of times in its battles with little folk. The mighty centaur laughed heartily.
47 scores virtue Noun UNKNOWN 3246 Scores and scores of small arrows, filling the air all about him! "By my heart, my remark referred not at all to your virtue, which I would not question," Connor went on sincerely.
48 rotation coolly Singular Adverb UNKNOWN 3247 They broke their line often, individual elves leaping into pirouettes or simply following steps of their own choosing, but in general the rotation continued about Elbryan. "I had not noticed," Cat replied coolly, not returning the hug and trying hard to keep her expression blank as Pettibwa jumped back to arm's length.
49 tallest meself Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3248 Quintall was the shortest man in the class of twenty-five, while Avelyn was among the tallest. "You embarrassed me." "Meself?" Pettibwa said innocently.
aching Adjective UNKNOWN 3249 Jojonah held the diamond close to Avelyn, and the young monk felt its warmth flowing into his aching, frozen form.
impatient Adjective UNKNOWN 3250 The stunned man stammered, taking too long for the impatient monk's comfort.
portly Adverb UNKNOWN 3251 She stood up and offered her hand, helping the portly monk to his feet.
speck Noun UNKNOWN 3252 He turned his fingers gently to flick a speck of mud from her cheek, though his gaze never left her shining blue eyes.
squint Verb UNKNOWN 3253 His face was sharp and hawkish, his eyes small and dark - and smaller still on those many occasions that he squinted ominously at his young students.
50 chore innocently Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3254 3249 In addition to their daily duties as first - and second - year students at the abbey, they were given the extra chores of preparation for their journey to Pimaninicuit. "You embarrassed me." "Meself?" Pettibwa said innocently.
51 involved bawdy Verb Adjective UNKNOWN 3255 3250 Siherton wondered, and he wondered, too, about the potential danger of having one so devout getting involved with the precious stones. Why, ye act like no man's a good man!" The woman gave a bawdy wink.
52 lust jiggle Verb UNKNOWN 3256 3251 And, because of that passion, because of worldly lusts, a man who could be controlled. "It's all so natural." She hooked one finger in the cleavage of Cat's dress, pulled the dress lower, and shook her hand about, so that the young woman's breasts jiggled.
53 lure highly Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3257 3252 If Jill ventured into that tight place, if this man was out here to lure her in, she would likely find, herself in grabby quarters indeed. Lodestone was highly magnetic; its enchantment would send it fast to a metal surface.
54 declaration riotously Singular Adverb UNKNOWN 3258 3253 It was her glory that I join the Abellican Church, and I would be stealing that glory if I left now." He sucked in his breath, bolstering his declaration. The dwarf was telling some rowdy story, the two goblins laughing riotously at every grotesque detail.
55 commission nobility Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3259 3254 That thought shook Jojonah as he looked around at his decorated chamber, at the beautiful tapestry he had commissioned from the gallery of Porvon dan Guardinio, among the most respected artists in all the world. Perhaps her ascension into local nobility would even raise their own station in life, and Jill would treasure that above all else.
56 gallery sensual Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3260 3255 Brother Avelyn, too, ignored Tol Yuganick's cheering gallery. They represented another side of the girl, a womanly side, sensual, sexual - a part that Cat's free and girlish spirit was not yet ready to admit.
57 respected sexual Adjective UNKNOWN 3261 3256 How much he loved her, admired her, respected her! Thagraine's perception of his sexual past was indeed accurate.
58 artist avenue Noun UNKNOWN 3262 3257 He wanted to kneel and pray; he wanted to ask who the artist - or artists; for certainly no one man could have created all of this - might be, but realized before the words left his mouth that any name would be inconsequential, for certainly the carvers and illuminators who had done this had done so at the explicit intervention of God. Tuntun's only avenue of escape was straight down to the ground, and so she took it unceremoniously.
59 retire lash Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3263 3258 That night, Avelyn retired to his room, thoroughly exhausted, both emotionally and physically. She wanted to lash out at Avelyn at that moment, but she could not deny his last words.
60 demanding crestfallen Verb Adjective UNKNOWN 3264 3259 He went at once to the captain, demanding an explanation. "No," she replied, and his expression became crestfallen.
61 volunteer fathom Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3265 3260 He had spent all his waking hours at demanding work, volunteering for the most difficult parts of each task. But the old sea dog couldn't fathom the level of physical training these four men had endured.
62 herald scratch Gerund Verb UNKNOWN 3266 3261 Only the call to vespers, the ceremony heralding eventide, had interrupted Avelyn's frantic pace. Both swordsmen came in fast; the goblin swished the spear back and forth, the weapon's sharp tip scratching Cries arm and holding him at bay.
63 flood regal Verb Noun UNKNOWN 3267 3262 Images of his mother flooded his thoughts; he wondered if he might see a vision of her now, a visitation of her spirit before it went to its place in heaven. The twitchy little man looked across the open deck, past the staring eyes of the crewmen, to the tall, regal figure of Captain Adjonas.
64 disappointment dispute Singular Verb UNKNOWN 3268 3263 She wasn't, to Avelyn's ultimate disappointment. This was Adjonas' ship, that Quintall did not dispute, but the abbey had paid well for this transport and the brothers had not been put aboard as slaves.
65 crying unintelligible Noun Adjective UNKNOWN 3269 3264 The ceremony went off perfectly solemn yet joyous, ladies crying, men standing tall and handsome. The fat man sputtered something unintelligible and turned away, waving his hand dismissively.
66 oval potentially Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3270 3265 Scenes of the Halo, the heavenly gift, enwrapping all the others, an oval because of the angle at which it was portrayed. The bond was immediate and secure, the four monks putting aside their personal squabbles in light of potentially more dangerous enemies.
67 portal raider Noun UNKNOWN 3271 3266 Beyond this portal, Avelyn saw a huge room, braced by columns and lit by the orange flow of molten stone. "But the southern kingdom has little control over its raiders," Adjonas explained.
68 latch belowdecks Noun UNKNOWN 3272 3267 Avelyn blinked; amid the wonders of the door, he hadn't even noticed the huge latch! Quintall returned to them much later that evening, belowdecks in the closet-sized.
69 oil weird Verb Adjective UNKNOWN 3273 3268 At night, they huddled together around oil lamps and candles, trying to ward off the chill. There was something weird about his smile, Avelyn noted, something misplaced..
70 interior misplace Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3274 3269 They were far below ground in one of the abbey's interior chambers, so there could be no window. There was something weird about his smile, Avelyn noted, something misplaced..
71 cloudless patient Adjective UNKNOWN 3275 3270 But there was indeed light inside that room, such a light as to make Avelyn think of a cloudless midsummer day. Pellimar, though, was not so patient.
72 practically vainly Adverb UNKNOWN 3276 3271 Jojonah moved into the room, Avelyn practically stumbling behind him. She focused all her strength, trying vainly to invite the man in, trying vainly to facilitate the joining.
73 crystalline damp Adjective UNKNOWN 3277 3272 Avelyn studied the way the light worked off the many facets of the diamonds, how it seemed to delve within the stone itself, swirling down to crystalline depths. She tried to straighten her still-damp clothes, but realized that she would be conspicuous indeed to any, walking as she was without boots, and without the dirtied, calloused feet of a peasant woman.
74 astronomical accurate Adjective UNKNOWN B2 3278 3273 They studied the Halo, the charts that determined the astronomical data which would indicate the time of the showers. Thagraine's perception of his sexual past was indeed accurate.
75 girdle sanction Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3279 3274 Perhaps he would shine in the heavens above, a fifth light on the girdle of Progos-Behemoth! Avelyn remembered the speech Master Jojonah had given him when first they had talked about the island, the stern warning that to utter even its name to any without sanction of Father Abbot Markwart was punishable by death, and he agreed with Quintall's logic.
76 groove briskly Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3280 3275 Looking closer, Avelyn noted grooves in the wall. She jumped when he briskly entered, pulling the covers from her bed up before her.
77 offering viewpoint Noun Plural UNKNOWN 3281 3276 Master Jojonah had called the stone showers "offerings," and to Avelyn, that description seemed exactly wrong. Avelyn considered the sight from two widely disparate viewpoints.
78 lever dumb Verb Adjective UNKNOWN 3282 3277 Jill did see that a detachment of six soldiers was at the catapult, three working the levers, three desperately trying to hold a handful of powries at bay. His words, the sincerity of his tone, struck her dumb.
79 star inhabitant Noun UNKNOWN 3283 3278 It was up on that rooftop, under a sky that was streaked by clouds and stars, that Connor first mentioned the prospect of marriage. Even the vivid, bright colors of the clothing of Entel's inhabitants struck the four as unusual.
80 somberly oar Adverb Noun UNKNOWN 3284 3279 Bradwarden nodded somberly, and Elbryan scooped up Hawkwing and ran off into the night, behind the departing powrie, though the ranger held faith that Avelyn would know how to deal with the dwarf. Finally came the welcome sound of oars and the boat, all three safely aboard.
81 heavier unfamiliar Adjective UNKNOWN 3285 3280 It was heavier than Avelyn had expected, quite solid and dense. Even as he explored this unfamiliar use of hematite, he gave to Jill his understanding of the stories - and it was so easy!
82 effortlessly companionship Adverb Noun UNKNOWN 3286 3281 He understood the command and willed himself off the ground, drifting effortlessly toward the ceiling. It wasn't that he craved human companionship; he continued to fear that thought greatly.
83 whispering keenly Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3287 3282 To the left came a titter, a tiny voice whispering softly. His sense of order was simply too strong, his sense of right and wrong too keenly developed.
84 fancy union Adjective Plural UNKNOWN 3288 3283 There was indeed a mystery here that no tumble of fancy words could lay bare; there was something here of a higher order. A physical union she could not abide - not with this man, not with Connor!
85 tenfold marker Noun UNKNOWN 3289 3284 He glanced around the room again, from stone to stone, his reverence of these gifts from God tenfold what it had been when first he had entered the chamber. This moment, so many years in the waiting, was the marker of the end of that relationship with the girl, the beginning of the new and deeper relationship with the woman.
86 hidden upstart Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3290 3285 When he was gone, Master Jojonah replaced the stones, closed the case, then went to the wall and moved the hidden switch to lock it fast. He had not battled Tuntun in many weeks; he was determined now to give the upstart elf a bit of a surprise.
87 slanting overhand Adjective Noun UNKNOWN 3291 3286 As soon as they cleared that last copse, they saw an entrance, a great gaping hole, defying the slanting rays of the westering sun. He started with an overhand, underhand parry sweep again, but instead of catching the staff with his left hand as it came swishing back to horizontal, he turned his right hand over once more.
88 partially partly Adverb UNKNOWN 3292 3287 Pettibwa left Fellowship Way to her, even partially, Grady would not be pleased. His success was partly gained by surprise.
89 multitude rapidly Noun Adverb UNKNOWN 3293 3288 And then came the next long pause, lying on the ground on her back, her thoughts swirling down a multitude of paths, every one of which seemed to lead to no place but despair. Chipmunk nodded so rapidly that he bit his tongue.
90 crushed tiring Adjective UNKNOWN 3294 3289 Goblins and powries scattered or were crushed beneath the charge, a hundred wild horses stampeding along the ravine. With a growl, Avelyn pushed on, finally reaching the tiring Quintall.
91 fearing plop Noun PastTense UNKNOWN 3295 3290 And then she could look no more, fearing that she would find Thomas Ault, her father dear, among the dead. Her breath came out in a rush as she plopped down hard, the staff's butt end secure against the ground, its tip stabbing hard into her chest between her lowest ribs.
92 investigate apple Infinitive Noun B2 UNKNOWN 3296 3291 Pony thought she should go closer to investigate, but she hadn't the stomach. The row of trees, short and wide apples, ran almost perfectly straight, then jumped back a dozen feet, up a ridge twice an elf's height, and continued on straight again from there.
93 numbness explore Noun Verb UNKNOWN 3297 3292 She stood and stared, and a numbness came over her, stealing her emotions. What he came to understand from that viewpoint was a sense of self he had never before felt free to explore.
94 bravely flourish Adverb Verb UNKNOWN 3298 3293 Elbryan could see his father had died bravely, and understanding. He finished with a leaping flourish and landed pointing to the stripe.
95 forceful etch Adjective Verb UNKNOWN 3299 3294 He was broad shouldered and strong, forceful in manner as he was in speech. For Juraviel's anxiety was clearly etched on his fine features - how could it have been otherwise when he had been speaking to his protégé Elbryan about this very subject not a week's time past?
96 stiffen occurrence Verb Singular UNKNOWN 3300 3295 The elf straightened and stiffened, and leaned forward over the lunging boy's head and shoulders. Gradually, as he came to see the light in Jill's eyes every time he entered the Way - a more and more common occurrence - the proud young man began to understand and accept that her problem was within the mysteries of her past and not with him.
97 predict Verb UNKNOWN 3296 The reaction of Pettibwa and Graevis to the news of the marriage was not hard to predict.
