  Comments:
ひょろり not always accompanied by と.  removing that and therefore splitting off ひょろっと, which cannot be considered adv-to.  "e.g. people, trees" seems like "to eat (e.g. tomatoes)"

  Comments:
More glosses – esp. person or tree, and more idiomatic glosses.
Add pos [vs] (also takes 〜した etc.)
(Heard today as ひょろっと, by friend describing lanky people.)
