Re: meaning of this word ?
Hi Sara,

“bits” here means “small amounts”. “Jerky” could mean “subject to sudden, uncontrollable movements” or “unpleasant, disagreeable”. “Stems” has several meanings; it could mean “plant stalks”, or “narrow parts of certain manmade objects”, or something else, depending upon context. What is this sentence in “Maud Martha” describing?

Re:meaning of this word ?
bits means "small amounts" or "small pieces"

"jerky little stems" in this context is probably indicating that the stems are rough, not very straight, uneven, unstraight, zig-zag.. etc.
