We don't mind whether you're a native speaker or not, we have a policy of not trusting anyone's own ideas, and prefer people to use references to prove that their answer is correct. I've done this for you here. We expect this because even native speakers misunderstand words sometimes - I've often myself found that dictionaries disagree with what I thought a word meant. I've also edited your answer as I corrected the typo in the question. But +1 for good suggestions. I hope you'll continue to make them on other questions too. :)
