What did Meriwether Lewis mean when he wrote he had an "inclination" to eat veal.?
" I felt an inclination to eat some veal and
walked on shore and killed a very fine buffaloe calf and a large woolf, much
the whitest I had seen, it was quite as white as the wool of the common sheep."
The context clue here is the word ‘inclination’, which is basically a human urge that can be acted upon. By using this context clue, we can assume that he wanted to eat veal.
