"Kidnapped" Vocab: Chapter Two

Fife-a type of flute used in military and musical bands
As my high school band passed by I saw my friend playing the fife.

Muckle- British for mickle (great, grand, much, large)
The house may not have been very muckle but it was where I grew up and I loved it.

Desist- to cease from proceeding
When the teacher told me to desist talking I had to ask her what she meant.

Eldritch- eerie, weird, spooky
The abandoned hotel had a kind of eldritch glow to it.

Blunerbuss- a gun that scatters bullets
I was surprised to see that the old man had a blunderbuss form an old war.
