         DefinitionShort: to cut, by means of a sharp-edged instrument (for example, knife, sword, or ax)

         Glosses: to cut

         Comments: In a number of languages important distinctions are made for various types of cutting. For example, terms referring to the cutting of flesh may be different from those involving wood or stone. Similarly, important distinctions may be made as to whether there is simply an incision by cutting or whether a particular object is cut in two or cut off.

         DefinitionShort: to beat the breast and lament as an expression of sorrow{N:001}

         Glosses: ['to mourn', 'to lament', 'to beat the breast', 'mourning', 'lamentation']

         Comments: In a number of languages it is entirely impossible to use an expression such as ‘to beat the breast’ in referring to mourning or grief, since ‘to beat the breast’ is often employed as a gesture of self-congratulation or pride in accomplishment. In a number of instances the closest equivalent of ‘to beat the breast’ is ‘to beat the head’ or even ‘to pull out the hair.’
