Noun CEFR A2

Definitions

A piece, a clove (of segmented produce, especially oranges and garlic).

Examples

“I have many relations and friends who are West Indians. They always speak of the section of an orange as a "fig," and of tearing an orange into its different pieces as "figging an orange." This does not apply to a division by knife.”
“Place about ten to fifteen fegs of garlic, half cup of dried fine thyme, (more if fresh thyme is used), 4 or more wiri wiri peppers, and a tablespoon of salt in a blender with about a cup of vinegar and blend for about a minute until well blended.”
