From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Carbonic \Car*bon"ic\, a. [Cf. F. carbonique. See {Carbon}.]       (Chem.)       Of, pertaining to, or obtained from, carbon; as, carbonic       oxide.          {Carbonic acid} (Chem.), an acid {H2CO3}, not existing             separately, which, combined with positive or basic atoms             or radicals, forms carbonates. In common language the term             is very generally applied to a compound of carbon and             oxygen, {CO2}, more correctly called {carbon dioxide}. It             is a colorless, heavy, irrespirable gas, extinguishing             flame, and when breathed destroys life. It can be reduced             to a liquid and solid form by intense pressure. It is             produced in the fermentation of liquors, and by the             combustion and decomposition of organic substances, or             other substances containing carbon. It is formed in the             explosion of fire damp in mines, and is hence called             {after damp}; it is also know as {choke damp}, and             {mephitic air}. Water will absorb its own volume of it,             and more than this under pressure, and in this state             becomes the common soda water of the shops, and the             carbonated water of natural springs. Combined with lime it             constitutes limestone, or common marble and chalk. Plants             imbibe it for their nutrition and growth, the carbon being             retained and the oxygen given out.          {Carbonic oxide} (Chem.), a colorless gas, {CO}, of a light             odor, called more correctly {carbon monoxide}. It is             almost the only definitely known compound in which carbon             seems to be divalent. It is a product of the incomplete             combustion of carbon, and is an abundant constituent of             water gas. It is fatal to animal life, extinguishes             combustion, and burns with a pale blue flame, forming             carbon dioxide.

hack   [very common] 1. n. Originally, a quick job that produces    what is needed, but not well.   2. n. An incredibly good, and perhaps    very time-consuming, piece of work that produces exactly what is    needed.   3. vt. To bear emotionally or physically.   "I can't hack    this heat!"   4. vt. To work on something (typically a program).   In    an immediate sense: "What are you doing?"   "I'm hacking TECO."   In a    general (time-extended) sense: "What do you do around here?"   "I    hack TECO."   More generally, "I hack `foo'" is roughly equivalent to    "`foo' is my major interest (or project)".   "I hack solid-state    physics."   See {Hacking X for Y}.   5. vt. To pull a prank on.   See    sense 2 and {hacker} (sense 5).   6. vi. To interact with a computer    in a playful and exploratory rather than goal-directed way.    "Whatcha up to?"   "Oh, just hacking."   7. n. Short for {hacker}.   8.    See {nethack}.   9. [MIT] v. To explore the basements, roof ledges,    and steam tunnels of a large, institutional building, to the dismay    of Physical Plant workers and (since this is usually performed at    educational institutions) the Campus Police.   This activity has been    found to be eerily similar to playing adventure games such as    Dungeons and Dragons and {Zork}.   See also {vadding}.          Constructions on this term abound.   They include `happy hacking'    (a farewell), `how's hacking?' (a friendly greeting among hackers)    and `hack, hack' (a fairly content-free but friendly comment, often    used as a temporary farewell).   For more on this totipotent term see    "{The Meaning of Hack}".   See also {neat hack}, {real hack}.

hog n.,vt.   1. Favored term to describe programs or hardware    that seem to eat far more than their share of a system's resources,    esp. those which noticeably degrade interactive response.   _Not_    used of programs that are simply extremely large or complex or that    are merely painfully slow themselves.   More often than not    encountered in qualified forms, e.g., `memory hog', `core hog', `hog    the processor', `hog the disk'.   "A controller that never gives up    the I/O bus gets killed after the bus-hog timer expires."   2. Also    said of _people_ who use more than their fair share of resources    (particularly disk, where it seems that 10% of the people use 90% of    the disk, no matter how big the disk is or how many people use it).    Of course, once disk hogs fill up one filesystem, they typically    find some other new one to infect, claiming to the sysadmin that    they have an important new project to complete.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
hook n.   A software or hardware feature included in order to    simplify later additions or changes by a user.   For example, a    simple program that prints numbers might always print them in base    10, but a more flexible version would let a variable determine what    base to use; setting the variable to 5 would make the program print    numbers in base 5.   The variable is a simple hook.   An even more    flexible program might examine the variable and treat a value of 16    or less as the base to use, but treat any other number as the    address of a user-supplied routine for printing a number.   This is a    {hairy} but powerful hook; one can then write a routine to print    numbers as Roman numerals, say, or as Hebrew characters, and plug it    into the program through the hook.   Often the difference between a    good program and a superb one is that the latter has useful hooks in    judiciously chosen places.   Both may do the original job about    equally well, but the one with the hooks is much more flexible for    future expansion of capabilities ({EMACS}, for example, is _all_    hooks).   The term `user exit' is synonymous but much more formal and    less hackish.
From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
hose   1. vt. [common] To make non-functional or greatly    degraded in performance.   "That big ray-tracing program really hoses    the system."   See {hosed}.   2. n. A narrow channel through which    data flows under pressure.   Generally denotes data paths that    represent performance bottlenecks.   3. n. Cabling, especially thick    Ethernet cable.   This is sometimes called `bit hose' or `hosery'    (play on `hosiery') or `etherhose'.   See also {washing machine}.

He was the       first of the three (Zechariah, his contemporary, and Malachi,       who was about one hundred years later, being the other two)       whose ministry belonged to the period of Jewish history which       began after the return from captivity in Babylon. Scarcely       anything is known of his personal history. He may have been one       of the captives taken to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar. He began his       ministry about sixteen years after the Return. The work of       rebuilding the temple had been put a stop to through the       intrigues of the Samaritans. After having been suspended for       fifteen years, the work was resumed through the efforts of       Haggai and Zechariah (Ezra 6:14), who by their exhortations       roused the people from their lethargy, and induced them to take       advantage of the favourable opportunity that had arisen in a       change in the policy of the Persian government. (See DARIUS       ¯T0000975 [2].) Haggai's prophecies have thus been       characterized:, "There is a ponderous and simple dignity in the       emphatic reiteration addressed alike to every class of the       community, prince, priest, and people, 'Be strong, be strong, be       strong' (2:4). 'Cleave, stick fast, to the work you have to do;'       or again, 'Consider your ways, consider, consider, consider'       (1:5, 7;2:15, 18). It is the Hebrew phrase for the endeavour,       characteristic of the gifted seers of all times, to compel their       hearers to turn the inside of their hearts outwards to their own       view, to take the mask from off their consciences, to 'see life       steadily, and to see it wholly.'", Stanley's Jewish Church. (See {SIGNET}.)

Hawk       (Heb. netz, a word expressive of strong and rapid flight, and       hence appropriate to the hawk). It is an unclean bird (Lev.       11:16; Deut. 14:15). It is common in Syria and surrounding       countries. The Hebrew word includes various species of       Falconidae, with special reference perhaps to the kestrel (Falco       tinnunculus), the hobby (Hypotriorchis subbuteo), and the lesser       kestrel (Tin, Cenchris). The kestrel remains all the year in       Palestine, but some ten or twelve other species are all migrants       from the south. Of those summer visitors to Palestine special       mention may be made of the Falco sacer and the Falco lanarius.       (See NIGHT-{HAWK}.)

Hazo       vision, one of the sons of Nahor (Gen. 22:22).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
He-ass       Heb. hamor, (Gen. 12:16), the general designation of the donkey       used for carrying burdens (Gen. 42:26) and for ploughing (Isa.       30:24). It is described in Gen. 49:14, 2 Sam. 19:26. (See {ASS}.)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hegai       eunuch, had charge of the harem of Ahasuerus (Esther 2:8).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Highway       a raised road for public use. Such roads were not found in       Palestine; hence the force of the language used to describe the       return of the captives and the advent of the Messiah (Isa.       11:16; 35:8; 40:3; 62:10) under the figure of the preparation of       a grand thoroughfare for their march.                During their possession of Palestine the Romans constructed       several important highways, as they did in all countries which       they ruled.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hiss       to express contempt (Job 27:23). The destruction of the temple       is thus spoken of (1 Kings 9:8). Zechariah (10:8) speaks of the       Lord gathering the house of Judah as it were with a hiss: "I       will hiss for them." This expression may be "derived from the       noise made to attract bees in hiving, or from the sound       naturally made to attract a person's attention."
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hizkiah       an ancestor of the prophet Zephaniah (1:1).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hook       (1.) Heb. hah, a "ring" inserted in the nostrils of animals to       which a cord was fastened for the purpose of restraining them (2       Kings 19:28; Isa. 37:28, 29; Ezek. 29:4; 38:4). "The Orientals       make use of this contrivance for curbing their       work-beasts...When a beast becomes unruly they have only to draw       the cord on one side, which, by stopping his breath, punishes       him so effectually that after a few repetitions he fails not to       become quite tractable whenever he begins to feel it"       (Michaelis). So God's agents are never beyond his control.                (2.) Hakkah, a fish "hook" (Job 41:2, Heb. Text, 40:25; Isa.       19:8; Hab. 1:15).                (3.) Vav, a "peg" on which the curtains of the tabernacle were       hung (Ex. 26:32).                (4.) Tsinnah, a fish-hooks (Amos 4:2).                (5.) Mazleg, flesh-hooks (1 Sam. 2:13, 14), a kind of fork       with three teeth for turning the sacrifices on the fire, etc.                (6.) Mazmeroth, pruning-hooks (Isa. 2:4; Joel 3:10).                (7.) 'Agmon (Job 41:2, Heb. Text 40:26), incorrectly rendered       in the Authorized Version. Properly a rush-rope for binding       animals, as in Revised Version margin.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hosah       refuge. (1.) A place on the border of the tribe of Asher (Josh.       19:29), a little to the south of Zidon.                (2.) A Levite of the family of Merari (1 Chr. 16:38).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hose       (Dan. 3:21), a tunic or undergarment.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hosea       salvation, the son of Beeri, and author of the book of       prophecies bearing his name. He belonged to the kingdom of       Israel. "His Israelitish origin is attested by the peculiar,       rough, Aramaizing diction, pointing to the northern part of       Palestine; by the intimate acquaintance he evinces with the       localities of Ephraim (5:1; 6:8, 9; 12:12; 14:6, etc.); by       passages like 1:2, where the kingdom is styled 'the land', and       7:5, where the Israelitish king is designated as 'our' king."       The period of his ministry (extending to some sixty years) is       indicated in the superscription (Hos. 1:1, 2). He is the only       prophet of Israel who has left any written prophecy.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hoshea       salvation. (1.) The original name of the son of Nun, afterwards       called Joshua (Num. 13:8, 16; Deut. 32:44).                (2.) 1 Chr. 27:20. The ruler of Ephraim in David's time.                (3.) The last king of Israel. He conspired against and slew       his predecessor, Pekah (Isa. 7:16), but did not ascend the       throne till after an interregnum of warfare of eight years (2       Kings 17:1, 2). Soon after this he submitted to Shalmaneser, the       Assyrian king, who a second time invaded the land to punish       Hoshea, because of his withholding tribute which he had promised       to pay. A second revolt brought back the Assyrian king Sargon,       who besieged Samaria, and carried the ten tribes away beyond the       Euphrates, B.C. 720 (2 Kings 17:5, 6; 18:9-12). No more is heard       of Hoshea. He disappeared like "foam upon the water" (Hos. 10:7;       13:11).

Hough       to hamstring, i.e., sever the "tendon of Achilles" of the hinder       legs of captured horses (Josh. 11:6; 2 Sam. 8:4; 1 Chr. 18:4),       so as to render them useless.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
House       Till their sojourn in Egypt the Hebrews dwelt in tents. They       then for the first time inhabited cities (Gen. 47:3; Ex. 12:7;       Heb. 11:9). From the earliest times the Assyrians and the       Canaanites were builders of cities. The Hebrews after the       Conquest took possession of the captured cities, and seem to       have followed the methods of building that had been pursued by       the Canaanites. Reference is made to the stone (1 Kings 7:9;       Isa. 9:10) and marble (1 Chr. 29:2) used in building, and to the       internal wood-work of the houses (1 Kings 6:15; 7:2; 10:11, 12;       2 Chr. 3:5; Jer. 22:14). "Ceiled houses" were such as had beams       inlaid in the walls to which wainscotting was fastened (Ezra       6:4; Jer. 22:14; Hag. 1:4). "Ivory houses" had the upper parts       of the walls adorned with figures in stucco with gold and ivory       (1 Kings 22:39; 2 Chr. 3:6; Ps. 45:8).                The roofs of the dwelling-houses were flat, and are often       alluded to in Scripture (2 Sam. 11:2; Isa. 22:1; Matt. 24:17).       Sometimes tents or booths were erected on them (2 Sam. 16:22).       They were protected by parapets or low walls (Deut. 22:8). On       the house-tops grass sometimes grew (Prov. 19:13; 27:15; Ps.       129:6, 7). They were used, not only as places of recreation in       the evening, but also sometimes as sleeping-places at night (1       Sam. 9:25, 26; 2 Sam. 11:2; 16:22; Dan. 4:29; Job 27:18; Prov.       21:9), and as places of devotion (Jer. 32:29; 19:13).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Hushai       quick, "the Archite," "the king's friend" (1 Chr. 27:33). When       David fled from Jerusalem, on account of the rebellion of       Absalom, and had reached the summit of Olivet, he there met       Hushai, whom he sent back to Jerusalem for the purpose of       counteracting the influence of Ahithophel, who had joined the       ranks of Absalom (2 Sam. 15:32, 37; 16:16-18). It was by his       advice that Absalom refrained from immediately pursuing after       David. By this delay the cause of Absalom was ruined, for it       gave David time to muster his forces.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Husk       In Num. 6:4 (Heb. zag) it means the "skin" of a grape. In 2       Kings 4:42 (Heb. tsiqlon) it means a "sack" for grain, as       rendered in the Revised Version. In Luke 15:16, in the parable       of the Prodigal Son, it designates the beans of the carob tree,       or Ceratonia siliqua. From the supposition, mistaken, however,       that it was on the husks of this tree that John the Baptist fed,       it is called "St. John's bread" and "locust tree." This tree is       in "February covered with innumerable purple-red pendent       blossoms, which ripen in April and May into large crops of pods       from 6 to 10 inches long, flat, brown, narrow, and bent like a       horn (whence the Greek name keratia, meaning 'little horns'),       with a sweetish taste when still unripe. Enormous quantities of       these are gathered for sale in various towns and for       exportation." "They were eaten as food, though only by the       poorest of the poor, in the time of our Lord." The bean is       called a "gerah," which is used as the name of the smallest       Hebrew weight, twenty of these making a shekel.
