peer agreement (net): +1taggig Explanation: Tycker att det borde betyda taggig eller "med taggar". Epine är ju tagg... Epineux finns ju också, men kanske spinescent är ett mera "vetenskapligt" ord. Bildgoogla ! För övrigt finns ju på svenska taggar och tornar. Taggar utgår från barken och tornar direkt från veden. (gamla, osäkra skolkunskaper...) |

taggig Explanation: Adjective spinescent (not comparable) Having a spine or spines. Terminating in a spine. This does not refer to spine in the sense of a backbone or book binding, but in the sense of "spiny". Cacti and sea urchins are spinescent. 'Fel' språk, men ändå rätt sannolikt att det betyder samma sak på franska. Reference: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/spinescent |
