two are proper nouns, so dont count. three mean 'to close something' (more or less). one is an animal.

English sucks ass and it's all the fault of people who pronounce the word "avove" with two distinct vowel sounds like weirdos.

(Jk jk I don't mean it please don't hurt me wedge/schwa distinguishers.)

Pretty sure seals were named after seals.

I don't get the first row, somebody feel like helping me out? Lol

A Navy Seal, an oil seal for a machine, and someone applying wood sealant.

Both the first and second row are the same. Seal.

What kind of "tHaNk yOu fOr yOuR sErViCe"-brain nonsense made you think anything but a sliver of people would look at "man with gun" and think Seal?

Context clues? Every other image is of a seal.

If you'd like to have your mind blown by something you haven't ever thought that hard about before in your life, sit down and try to come up with a list for all the definitions and use contexts for the word "set."
