| vocabulary简明 | A shunt is a small tube that goes inside the body to drain fluid. It also means to divert in a general way, like if you shunt the thought of tubes in your body, you think about rainbows and kittens instead. |
| vocabulary扩展 | Although shunt usually refers to a tube that drains blood or other fluid out of a part of the body, shunt also means to bypass.

It turns something away from where it was headed. |
