Chapiter is always a great word to know.
So is interrobang. Does it mean:
a calculus or concretion found in the stomach or intestines of certain animals, esp. ruminants, formerly reputed to be an effective remedy for poison.
a printed punctuation mark (‽), available only in some typefaces, designed to combine the question mark (?) and the exclamation point (!), indicating a mixture of query and interjection, as after a rhetorical question.

Chapiter definition


the ornamental head or capital of a pillar. Three Hebrew words are so rendered. (1.) _Cothereth_ (1 Kings 7:16; 2 Kings 25:17; 2 Chr. 4:12), meaning a "diadem" or "crown." (2.) _Tzepheth_ (2 Chr. 3:15). (3.) _Rosh_ (Ex. 36:38; 38:17, 19, 28), properly a "head" or "top."
