"Gastropoda" is a word in ENGLISH
One of the classes of Mollusca, of great extent. It
includes most of the marine spiral shells, and the land and fresh-water
snails. They generally creep by means of a flat, muscular disk, or
foot, on the ventral side of the body. The head usually bears one or
two pairs of tentacles. See Mollusca.
Wisdom is better than knowledge, for wisdom is simple but knowledge is complex.
