What's the difference between cuttle and cuttlefish?
Cuttle
Definition:
(n.) A knife.
(n.) Alt. of Cuttlefish
Example Sentences:

(14) Thus, spermiogenesis of the cuttle-fish (and perhaps of other cephalopods), shows two basic nuclear protein transitions, which are similar to the transitions observed in higher vertebrates such as mammals.
Cuttlefish
Definition:
(n.) A cephalopod of the genus Sepia, having an internal shell, large eyes, and ten arms furnished with denticulated suckers, by means of which it secures its prey. The name is sometimes applied to dibranchiate cephalopods generally.
(n.) A foul-mouthed fellow.
Example Sentences:
(1) Whether Philip Hammond is soft snow or a spurting cuttlefish is difficult to say.
(3) The diets were presented for periods of 2 to 11 weeks to octopuses, cuttlefishes or squids and in most trials the results were compared to animals fed control diets of live marine shrimps, crabs or fish.
(4) The sex differenciation in the gonad of the cuttlefish is only evident after the hatching, -- the "A" cells become spermatogonia or ovogonia.

(6) In unilaterally blinded octopus and cuttlefish, the optic lobe of the deprived side showed a decreased uptake of the labelled tracer.
(7) The search for it in squids and cuttlefishes led to the discovery of the giant nerve fibres.
(8) When there is a gap between one's real and one's declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words and exhausted idioms, like a cuttlefish squirting out ink.'
(9) These studies have been carried out on the cerebellum and some other regions in a variety of species that include rat, turtle, skate and an intervertebrate, the cuttlefish.
(10) While their double-shelled relations (clams, mussels, oysters, scallops, etc) specialise in filtering water to remove food particles, and their single-shelled little cousins (periwinkles, whelks, limpets, conches) specialise in, well, adorning a seafood platter, cephalopods (octopus, cuttlefish and squid) specialise in a seriously impressive form of self-defence.
(11) With an arginine content of about 77%, cuttlefish protamine is one of the most basic proteins which have ever been characterized and the first typical protamine sequenced in invertebrates.
(12) We stopped for lunch at Flor do Arneiro (Sitio Arneiro 260, +351 289 815 287) in Arneiro near Faro, a fine restaurant serving cataplana (a dish of cuttlefish, clams and onions), where Don Chumbhino gave us some recipes for the dishes we were eating.
(13) Experimental foods were smoked cuttlefish (sectile food), raisins (food flattened under pressure), and peanuts (crushable food).
