    I'd remove the word dictionary from the dictionary so at night, when it wakes to introspect, its pages go all a-flap with its existential crisis.

    I'd remove a relentless word:

    It means: oblicuidad, parcialidad, predisposición, prejuicio, influir, tendencia.

    (Maybe with this post I won't have to consult the dictionary every time I stumble on it.)
