Hiding has its pluses, as when people make anonymous donations, protect news sources, and ensure patient confidentiality. But there's also a shady side to hiding, as these sentences show: "A prosecutor's clerk took home case materials and concealed them," "Can you hide me from the police?" and "She harbored the deserter." Learn to say all of this using 匿!
