ORIGINAL-LANGUAGE MAP

Which Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek words stand behind this KJV word?

These relationships come from exact verse + token-position mappings. We do not assume that one English spelling always equals one Strong's number. A single English token can also carry more than one source tag, so the Strong's-link total can exceed the number of English occurrences.

WEBSTER’S 1828

English meaning and historical usage.

Dictionary data is kept visibly separate from Scripture and from lexical Strong's data.

shore

SHORE, the old. pret. of shear. Obs.

SHORE, noun The coast or land adjacent to the sea, or to a large lake or river. This word is applied primarily to land contiguous to water; but it extends to the ground near the border of the sea or of a lake, which is covered with water. We also use the word to express the land near the border of the sea or of a great lake, to an indefinite extent; as when we say, a town stands on the shore. We do not apply the word to land contiguous to a small stream. This we call a bank.

SHORE, noun [The popular but corrupt pronunciation of sewer; a pronunciation that should be carefully avoided.]

SHORE, noun A prop; a butress; something that supports a building or other thing.

SHORE, verb transitive

1. To prop; to support by a post or butress; usually withsup; as, to shore up a building.

2. To set on shore [Not in use.]
