String or cord (5)
I believe the answer is:
twine
I believe this is a double definition.
'string' is the first definition.
(I know that string can be written as twine)
'cord' is the second definition.
(I know that twine is a type of cord)
(Other definitions for twine that I've seen before include "Strong thread or string" , "Twisted cord" , "Knot" , "String, cord" , "Garden string" .)
