beard
Jaw's fuzzy covering
The hair that sprouts from the faces of men is generally called a beard.
This core meaning informs other beardlike things, such as the cluster of feathers some birds have at the base of their beaks, or long stiff hairs on a plant.
If you beard something, you oppose it boldly: Beard the lion in his den.
In popular slang, a beard is a companion whose purpose is to give a false impression, such a woman accompanying a gay man.
