ArchivesRe: Beall
in reply to a message by Yahalome
Here are some possibilities, all culled from the Oxford English Disctionary:
1. Beall(n) a Shakespearian expression, meaning "that which is or constitutes the whole; the whole being".
2. Beal(n), a now obsolete word meaning "a pustule or boil"
3. Beal(n), a now obsolete word meaning "baker's shovel
4. Beal(n), meaning "The mouth of a (highland) river or valley"
5. Beal(v), meaning "to suppurate, to gather." Still in regular use in Scotland.
Take your pick :)
