Re 16a...are we doing Monopoly prices, Chris?

Yes, elle

I see it, chris, but it's inconsistent with the other definitions!

Not sure what you mean by inconsistent with the other definitions. First 2 letters are abbreviation for engineers + the other word = light changes. Perhaps we need to agree to differ and call it a day !

Sorry chris - I meant that in your link, only the first three mean "fraction" to me. (In particular the last two seem misusages, where fragment and fracture are the appropriate words, though this isn't relevant to my quibble!)

Not sure what this debate is about, but
Chambers' first def. of fraction reads :
a fragment or small piece

I rest my case M'lud !

....back to my baking ;0)
