         DefinitionShort: (an idiom, literally: echoing brass, or: resounding brass) a gong made of brass

         Glosses: brass gong

         Comments: In a number of languages the equivalent of gong is ‘noisy metal’ or ‘reverberating metal’ or ‘echoing metal,’ but frequently translators have simply used an expression meaning ‘loud bell.’
