Larboard
(gcide) | Larboard \Lar"board`\, n. [Lar- is of uncertain origin, possibly
the same as lower, i. e., humbler in rank, because the
starboard side is considered by mariners as higher in rank;
cf. D. laag low, akin to E. low. See Board, n., 8.] (Naut.)
The left-hand side of a ship to one on board facing toward
the bow; port; -- opposed to starboard.
[1913 Webster]
Note: Larboard is a nearly obsolete term, having been
superseded by port to avoid liability of confusion
with starboard, owing to similarity of sound.
[1913 Webster] |

(gcide) | Larboard \Lar"board`\, a.
