Esempio
A missing picket left a gap in the otherwise pristine boundary of the yard.
He replaced the broken picket in the fence to restore its neat appearance.
The old gate was made of wooden pickets, worn and weathered by time.
The children painted each picket of the fence a different color, creating a vibrant and playful look.
The picket was loose, and it creaked whenever the wind blew through the yard.
