Definition

- 2Conjunto de naipes que componen un juego completo.
- 3Órgano eréctil que presenta el macho de los vertebrados, homólogo del clítoris femenino, en el que desembocan los conductos del tracto genitourinario. En algunos animales se retrae en la ingle, y sólo se extiende durante la excreción y la cópula; en el ser humano no es retráctil.
