Chestnuts
['tʃɛs,nʌt]
娱乐性解释:
To dream of handling chestnuts, foretells losses in a business way, but indicates an agreeable companion through life. Eating them, denotes sorrow for a time, but final happiness. For a young woman to dream of eating or trying her fortune with them, she will have a well-to-do lover and comparative plenty.
