11 Mast is the "fruit of forest trees like acorns and other nuts". It is also defined as "the fruit of trees such as beech, and other forms of Fagaceae"
a buff can be a person who knows a lot about and is very interested in a particular subject as can a nut (about a subject) + s(square)
Please excuse a very clumsy explanation.
