Elicit, illicit

I recently wrote about a story in which the legend of Robin Hood had been presented as if Robin was a woman.  The story is an interesting one, even in the original version.  The author notes that, at the time of king Richard and Prince John, the country was barely one hundred years old.

Regrettaby, the author has confused the words elicit, and illicit.  Elicit is a verb, while illicit is an adjective.  So that pair of words has been added to our list.
