    An evil or misfortune to befall on someone or something WORD BANK:  curse, predatory, prey, lizard

    Explanation
    A curse refers to an evil or misfortune that is believed to befall on someone or something. It is often seen as a form of supernatural punishment or a consequence of wrongdoing. The word "predatory" refers to something or someone that preys on others, while "prey" refers to the target or victim of a predator. "Lizard" is a reptile species and is not related to the concept of a curse.
