To make certain dat something is da case regarding someone named Vera.

SIGnificant 

Or inSIGnificant, depending on what you're meaning. Refers to how important/relevant a military-grade firearm is to a matter under discussion.
For someone who loves hunting and/or target-practice, finding a SIGnificant other can be a bit challenging, since not everyone in da dating-pool is comfy with a guns-'n'-ammo lifestyle.

seiveillian

A "John Q. Public" figure with a mind dat allows thoughts and good sense to just "filter on through" without making much impression oh his actions or overall behavior.
In one episode of da TV comedy "Sister Sister", Ray is in da middle of chastising Tamera, notices dat she isn't paying any attention, and irritably inquires, "WHY do I get da feeling dat everything I say is goin' IN ONE EAR AND OUT DA OTHER?!". The camera pans to Tamera contemptuously daydreaming while Ray's suddenly-visible dialogue (in da form of a long "tickertaping" strip of white letters) goes slithering effortlessly in her left ear and out her right; she's a classic example of a seiveillian.

intallerance

Less-than-neutral feelings towards someone of superior stature.
Da vertically-challenged Napoleon Blownapart had a major case of "little man syndrome", so I wonder if his major reason for wanting to do battle with others was his smoldering intallerance of da fact dat so many of his fellow humans literally "looked down to him".

ellusion 

Da incorrect view dat someone or something is always trying to remain distant or invisible.
If you're out on a sightseeing trip, and it appears dat everyone and everything is perpetually trying to stay far away from you for no apparent reason, it's probably just an ellusion --- most likely you're merely got your binoculars turned around backwards, and so you're looking through them da wrong way.
