   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.

                So Chanticleer, who never saw a fox, Yet shunned
                him as a sailor shuns the rocks.  --Dryden.
