LAUREL
Lau"rel, n. Etym: [OE. lorel, laurer, lorer, OF. lorier, laurier, F.
laurier, (assumed) LL. Laurarius, fr. L. laurus.]
1. (Bot.)
Definition: An evergreen shrub, of the genus Laurus (L. nobilis), having
aromatic leaves of a lanceolate shape, with clusters of small,
yellowish white flowers in their axils; -- called also sweet bay.
Note: The fruit is a purple berry. It is found about the
Mediterranean, and was early used by the ancient Greeks to crown the
victor in the games of Apollo. At a later period, academic honors
were indicated by a crown of laurel, with the fruit. The leaves and
tree yield an aromatic oil, used to flavor the bay water of commerce.
Note: The name is extended to other plants which in some respect
resemble the true laurel. See Phrases, below.
2. A crown of laurel; hence, honor; distinction; fame; -- especially
in the plural; as, to win laurels.
