What the words mean

The app shows each word with a line like this, so nobody gets caught out by a word they’ve never heard.

Joints that pop and click when you stand up or crouch
Reading Glasses
Specs you need to see small print up close
Bed At 9pm
Turning in for the night very early in the evening

Suddenly saying and doing what mum and dad used to

A little gadget for snipping the fuzz inside your nostrils

Chatting on and on over when you will finally stop working
