What's the difference between tensile and tonsile?
Tensile
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to extension; as, tensile strength.
(a.) Capable of extension; ductile; tensible.
Example Sentences:

(20) In some cases, one or more microsurgical epiperineurium-fascial stitches (EPFS) along the proximal and distal stumps of a transected nerve permit their firm approximation, shifting tensile forces from the suture line over longer segments of the nerve stumps.
Tonsile
Definition:
(a.) Capable of being clipped.
Example Sentences:
(1) There were hemorrhages in sclera, gums and left tonsillar area and a grayish exudate on right tonsil.
(2) The sites involved primarily were the nasal cavity, tonsil and pharynx and about one-fourth of the total cases showed extensive involvement of two anatomical sites at initial presentation.
(3) An abscess of a lingual tonsil should be drained under general anesthesia, and lingual thyroid should be treated conservatively unless it produces obstructive symptoms.
(4) Enlargement of the jugulodigastric node is most often associated with tonsillitis, and the spinal accessory group of nodes with adenoiditis.
(5) The first manifestation was often extranodular (9 patients tonsil, 8 parotid gland, 8 base of tongue, 7 nasopharynx).
(6) With monoclonal antibody AA1, immunostaining was entirely specific for mast cell granules, and there was negligible background staining in a range of tissues including lung, tonsil, colon, gastric mucosa, skin, and pituitary.
(7) Present results supplement and expand earlier data and support the practical value of analysis of short-term cultured tonsil lymphocytes.
(8) Next, tonsil cells were separated into two fractions relatively rich in either T or B cells.
(9) These infections include chronic otitis media, chronic sinusitis and mastoiditis, chronic recurrent tonsillitis and lung abscesses.
(10) The major cerebral lobes, diencephalon, brain stem, cerebellum, cerebellar tonsils, and spinal cord were studied.
(11) It was suggested that a positive provocation test is accompanied by an increase in fibrinolytic activity in the circulating blood of patients with focal infection of the tonsil, and the increase in fibrinolytic activity is closely related to the positiveness of the provocation test.
(12) Conversely, the tonsil core bacteria with the highest bacterial concentrations are more likely to be present on the tonsillar surface and the greater the bacterial concentration, the more likely the bacteria are to be found in most if not all areas of the tonsil core.
