A definition of the light-related meaning would be a nice addition!

Kyriosity commented on the word pinery
"Though careless enough in most matters of eating, he loved good fruit—or if he did not, his friends and children did. There were great vexations, however, attending such a garden as his. The utmost care could not always secure the most valuable fruits. The pinery had yielded only one hundred in the last year."
~General Tilney in chapter 22 of Northanger Abbey, by Jane Austen

Kyriosity commented on the word homefulness
From this article: http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2015/12/the-book-of-human-emotions-language-feelings/420978/?utm_source=SFFB
"There’s a wonderful word: 'homefulness,' which is the feeling you get
when you turn the corner of your road or your airplane lands and you
know you're near home. It’s a lovely combination of relief and
belonging."
