Explanation:

To determine the definition of "crush" from Northumberland (Nhb) and Yorkshire (Yks), we analyze the provided definitions:

• Nhb (Northumberland): "the fracture of coal pillars in a pit. (Crush the coal.)"
• Yks (Yorkshire): "a feast, dance, or other entertainment. (We'll have a good crush with apples.)"

We identify the definitions associated with these regions. For Northumberland (Nhb), it's the coal pillar fracture; for Yorkshire (Yks), it's the entertainment - related one. But the question asks for the definition originating from both, and we check the labels. The Nhb is for Northumberland and Yks for Yorkshire. So we present the definitions as per their regions.

• Northumberland (Nhb): the fracture of coal pillars in a pit. (Crush the coal.)
• Yorkshire (Yks): a feast, dance, or other entertainment. (We'll have a good crush with apples.)
