gifts
Items with bows
Gifts are things given voluntarily without payment—presents.
A birthday gift, a gift from a friend, a gift to charity.
Gift also means natural talent or ability: She has a gift for languages.
The verb gift means to give as a present: He gifted her a necklace.
Some find this verb pretentious where "gave" would do.
A gift horse shouldn't have its mouth inspected—don't scrutinize generosity.
