LANGUAGE NOTES:
(Lieven < Marc Okrand, 10/29/2015): To "staple" papers together is to {rar} them.
(qepHom 2015 p.18): A stapler is a {Ha'on vevwI'}. The staple, the little metal thing, is called {baS Ha'on} or just {Ha'on}. The verb {vev} means "insert, put in", so the stapler is literally a device that "puts in" the staple ({Ha'on}) into the paper.
