What is the definition of Adders Tongue?

Ah, the 'adders tongue' - a peculiar anatomical marvel that's basically an over-the-top, tongue-tied version of a snake's. Picture this: a lizard's tongue can extend up to twice its head length, but our tongue has the nerve to sputter and retract in a panic at the slightest provocation, leaving us with the unsettling image of a snake's tongue, now adder-sized, trying to escape our grasp.

Example sentence: "When the adders tongue was mistaken for a venomous snake's, I had to perform an emergency 'coop' out of my nostrils to save the day - literally!"
