Does the word first count as a number?

Danielle Book Boss wrote: "Does the word first count as a number?"

Yes, it can count as a number. It's similar enough to Once, Twice, etc.

Another question (don't hate me...lol): What about Twin for family member? To me, a twin implies a brother or sister but what is the offical vote?

Diane T. wrote: "Another question (don't hate me...lol): What about Twin for family member? To me, a twin implies a brother or sister but what is the offical vote?"

I've counted orphan and baby as family members so I would think twin would be. I consider it anything that you'd say to describe someone's place in a family. (i.e. She's the baby of the family, or she's my twin)

Is blood overreaching for a body part?

Stacie wrote: "Is blood overreaching for a body part?"

Blood is completely a body part :) Others have used bone before.

Would Thirst by Christopher Pike be considered food and drink? Just wondering, been thinking about reading them again.

I think thirst wouldn't count since it's not a food/drink it's the absence of it.
