43	7	It was similar to the tiny lung fish I had seen earlier on the river, those little creatures clinging to the half-submerged roots of shore trees, and, as often as not, sunning themselves on the backs of tharlarion, those tiny fish called gints.	10

5	533	If you wished you could starve for another day, or you could seek garbage elsewhere, or beg, or fish for scraps in the canals".	10
6	353	One smell that I did not smell to a great degree was that of fish.	10
6	354	Many fish in these tropical waters are poisonous to eat, a function of certain forms of seaweed on which they feed.	10
6	355	The seaweed is harmless to the fish but it contains substances toxic to humans.	10
6	356	The river fish on the other hand, as far as I know, are generally wholesome for humans to eat.	10

24	97	Tied in the canoe itself was a long, cylindrical basket of strips of salted, dried fish.	10

24	288	He hurled more fish to another tharlarion, which, with a snapping, popping noise, clamped shut its jaws on the salty provender.	10
24	289	He similarly threw fish to the other two beasts.	10

29	218	I recalled, sunning themselves on exposed roots near the river, tiny fish.	10
29	225	Should the tharlarion submerge the tiny fish often submerges with it, staying close to it, but away from its jaws.	10
29	227	Similarly the tiny fish can thrive on the scraps from the ravaging jaws of the feeding tharlarion.	10
29	229	The remora fish and the shark have what seems to be, in some respects, a similar relationship.	10
29	230	These tiny fish, incidentally, are called gints.	10
44	25	It was a large fish.	10
44	33	Its four-spined dorsal fin could be seen now, the fish skimming beneath the water, cutting rapidly towards her.	10
44	38	The fish, on its stout, fleshy pectoral fins, was following her out of the water.	10
44	59	Ayari and Kisu referred to such fish as gints.	10
44	178	"We fish and hunt for them, and make cloth, and serve them," said one of the men.	10
53	62	This fish, when isolated and swimming free in a river or lake, is not particularly dangerous.	10
53	71	Given the habits of the fish I had little doubt but that this place was an ancient mating ground for them, for the grunt populations tend to return again and again to the places of their frenzy, wherever, usually in a lagoon or shallow place in a river, they may be.	10
53	471	'Tonight, if you wish, you may wade through the fish unharmed.	10
