I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'kiss' is the definition.
(I know that peck is a more specific form of kiss)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for peck that I've seen before include "lot of pints" , "Kiss; part of bushel" , "Strike with beak" , "quantity of dry stuff" , "Bite lightly; a dry measure" .)
