  1. moray

    A moray is a type of elongated, snake-like fish that belongs to the family Muraenidae. They are typically found in warm seas and are known for their distinctive, often vibrant, coloration and sharp teeth. Their peculiar respiratory system that requires them to open and close their mouths continuously gives them a threatening appearance, as if they were ready to strike. Many species of moray eels can be found, varying greatly in size and color.

Examples of moray in a Sentence

  1. Aaron Clarey:

    So do yourself and all men across the world a favor. Not only REFUSE to see the movie, but spread the word to as many men as possible. Not all of them have the keen eye we do here at (Return of Kings.) And most will be taken in by fire tornadoes and explosions. Because if they sheepishly attend and Fury Road is a blockbuster, then you, me, and all the other men (and real women) in the world will never be able to see a real action movie ever again that doesn't contain some damn political lecture or moray about feminism, SJW-ing, and socialism.
