A male person becomes a nobleman because he is born into a family that has a high rank. He is the son of a duke or a count, for example.

When things are in an order, we can see some pattern or reason that things are put together in a certain way. [1/9 definitions]
point We use points as a way to count how many times a person or team scores in a game. Some games or sports give more points for scoring when one way of scoring is more difficult than another way.

Teachers also give points when students get right answers on their homework or a test, and sometimes they take points away when students make mistakes. [1/12 definitions]
positive A positive number is a number that is greater than zero. When we count up from zero, we are counting positive numbers. Numbers that are less than zero are called "negative" numbers.

You have a negative amount. [1/7 definitions]
