What do you think the following bids mean:
South...West...North...East
2♣........4♦........Dbl........Pass
?
2♣ is Precision. If the auction confuses you, make it a natural 1♣ opener.
1. What is 5♦?
2. What is 5♥?
3. What is 5N?

I would think question one is, what does Double infer over your style of precison 2c opener? This must be a common auction that has been discussed.
1)penalty?
2) values?
3) bid your longer major?

1) 5♦ - pick a major, I assume 4405 is not allowed, so go with 3406 (if that is allowed), but not as strong as 5NT (see below). Think something like
KTxx AJx void KQJTxxx
2) 5♥ - heart-club two suiter, if five card suits allowed in 2♣, think something like x AJxxx x AKxxxx (can have a few more points
3) 5NT - diamond void, 4-3 in majors, six good diamonds, pick a slam It is hard to imagine, but think something like Axx KJxx void AKxxxx
