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. |
PARHE'LION, n. [Gr. near, and the sun.] A mock sun or meteor, appearing in the form of a bright light near the sun; sometimes tinged with colors like the rainbow, with a luminous train.
A mock sun appearing in
the form of a bright light, sometimes near the sun, and tinged with
colors like the rainbow, and sometimes opposite to the sun. The latter
is usually called an anthelion. Often several mock suns appear
at the same time. Cf. Paraselene.
