"G" is grumbling

Jack was constantly grumbling about the food situation - so was his stomach.

"H" is hungriness

Jack:  "Where the hell you been?  I been up with the sheep all day, I'm hungry as hell and all I find is beans."

Jack's hungriness turned to concern when he saw the blood on the side of Ennis's head.

Jack:  "What in the hell happened, Ennis?"

"I" is incorrectly

Jack incorrectly guesses that the Pentecost is when the world ends and fellas like him and Ennis march off to hell.  He has confused the Pentecost with Judgment Day.

"L" is lissome

Jack may have chosen the low-startle-point mare for her lissome, dancing quality.

"M" is marches

According to the 2004 screenplay/shooting script, Ennis seems to think that he won't be with Jack when he marches off to hell - thanks to Alma:

                    ENNIS
          Uh uh, speak for yourself. You may be a sinner,
          but Alma ain't yet given me the opportunity.

"N" is nicotine

Once Ennis gets the opportunity to sin, he acquires a new addiction along with nicotine and alchohol, but this one is nontoxic.

Jack and Ennis try their best to outfox both the Fish & Game Service and Joe Aguirre during the course of the summer.

Ennis becomes a sinner that summer of 1963, without either Alma or her permission.

"R" is rehire

Joe Aguirre will rehire Jack in 1963 but not in 1964.
