A sneeze is a sudden explosion of air from your nose and mouth. You usually sneeze if something tickles the inside of your nose, or if you have a cold.
It is a good idea to cover your nose and mouth when you sneeze, like the man in the picture. A lot of mucous can come out when you sneeze and can travel a long way. If you are sick, you can make other people sick by sneezing near them.

Snuff is powdered tobacco leaves, designed to be sniffed through the nose. Snuff was much more popular in the past than it is today. Most people today smoke cigarettes rather than sniff tobacco.
Snuff was carried around by people in their pockets in small, airtight snuff boxes, which ranged from simple wooden boxes like in the picture to quite elaborate and expensive jewelled boxes.

Sunburn is a type of burn that you get when you spend too much time in the sun without wearing sunscreen. Bad sunburn can be extremely painful, and can make your skin blister and peel. You treat sunburn the same way as any other minor burn, with special burn creams and even anaesthetic sprays. Too much exposure to the sun makes your skin age early and become dry and wrinkly, and can give you skin cancer.
When you go out in the sun, you can get sunburnt. Pale skin is more likely to burn than dark skin. Your skin tries to protect itself from the sun by producing melanin, which makes your skin darker. We call this a suntan. The people in the picture have darker skin where the sun has been shining on their skin, and paler skin where it was protected by their shoes.
