The above answers are correct but it depends on whether you're supposed to use "dun" as an adjective or transitive verb.
As a transitive verb the definition is to pester for payment. (the dunning letter).
As an adjective it can either mean the a horse with a greyish-yellow coat and black tail or a drab color.
Belie means to misrepresent or contradict.
