Answer 2

The "plumb" in "plumb-bob" comes from the fact that such tools were originally made of lead (Latin plumbum, probably through French plomb). The adjective "plumb" developed by extension. From it we get Plumb ,Plumber , Pluming , Plummet , and aplomb.

Answer 4

We would like for you to learn to learn our resources like the dictionary and translator.

From the SD dictionary under plumb -- plumb (line) -> plomada (f)
I'm not sure if that means anything to you.

From the translator -- pay out -- soltar poco a poco (rope)
gradually release -- Microsoft Translator
Unclip little by little -- SDL
to release little by little -- PROMPT
