<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">counterfeits</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(fake is a kind of counterfeit)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">forgeries</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(fake is a kind of forgery)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for fakes that I've seen before include "Puts on" , "People or things that are not genuine" , "Counterfeits" , "Forges" .)
