Lunch, an abbreviation of luncheon, is a midday meal of varying size depending on the culture.

Deutsch: Blatt
A leaf is an organ of a vascular plant, as defined in botanical terms, and in particular in plant morphology. Foliage is a mass noun that refers to leaves as a feature of plants. Typically a leaf is a thin, flattened organ borne above ground and specialized for photosynthesis, but many types of leaves are adapted in ways almost unrecognisable in those terms: some are not flat (for example many succulent leaves and conifers), some are not above ground (such as bulb scales), and some are without major photosynthetic function (consider for example cataphylls, spines, and cotyledons).
Deutsch: Lamb
Lamb or The Lamb may refer to a young sheep or Lamb and mutton, the meat of domestic sheep.
