After I first saw your question, I was thinking, what else does spell mean and then I realized that sometimes "spell" means like a spell a witch casts on something.... a magic spell. I wish I DID have magic ha ha.... but no.
Sometimes in the south, someone might say they are going to "sit a spell"..... then it means..... they are going to sit down for a while or a short amount of time.
It's funny how one word can have so many meanings and that it is just a matter of the context in which it is used.
Thank you !
If I say I paint in spells, I mean, sometimes I paint a lot for days or weeks and then there will be times when I don't paint at all for a while. 🙂
Oooh...I didn't know this expression and was far from understanding the meaning, thanks for the explanation !
You're welcome !
