     Usage: To {Avoid}, {Shun}. Avoid in its commonest sense
            means, to keep clear of, an extension of the meaning,
            to withdraw one's self from. It denotes care taken not
            to come near or in contact; as, to avoid certain
            persons or places. Shun is a stronger term, implying
            more prominently the idea of intention. The words may,
            however, in many cases be interchanged.
