It is not only important, but, in a degree necessary, that the people of this country, should have an American Dictionary of the English language; for, although the body of the language is the same as in England, and it is desirable to perpetuate that sameness, yet some differences must exist. Language is the expression of ideas; and if the people of one country cannot preserve an identity of ideas, they cannot retain an identity of language. |
A'BELMOSK, n. A trivial name of a species of hibiscus, or Syrian mallow. The plant rises on a herbacceous stalk, three or four feet, sending out two or three side branches. The seeds have a musky odor, for which reason the Arabians mix them with coffee.
An evergreen shrub
(Hibiscus -- formerly Abelmoschus -- moschatus), of the East
and West Indies and Northern Africa, whose musky seeds are used in
perfumery and to flavor coffee; -- sometimes called musk
mallow.
