Examples

“Blessed are those organisers who provide⟳ one-and-all with a name⟳ tag, for then the participants will chat together. A quick peer at your neighbour's lapel is much the simplest way to become⟳ introduced […]”

“In song he never had his peer.”

“Shall they draw⟳ off to their privileged quarters, and consort only with their peers?”

“a peer of the realm”

“a noble peer of mickle trust⟳ and power”

“He all his Peeres in beautie did surpas,”

“As was the caveat about peeing in a pool. Of course, peeing in a pool wasn't dangerous to the person ... If you peed in a pool, and you were carrying the polio virus, presumably *other* people were put⟳ at risk⟳, not the peer (pee-er?).”

“SOunds^([sic]) like⟳ you've already broken him quite well, if he's peeing when disciplined. Pretty sad. He's not a dog, not that treating a dog like⟳ this is any better either. You've turned your child into a submissive peer.”

“Submissive peeing, on the other hand, IS related to anxiety. But submissive peeing is not marking. A submissive peer is generally a very submissive dog.”
