         DefinitionShort: dry land, in contrast with the sea

         Glosses: land

         Comments: In a number of languages a clear distinction is made between terms which designate land in contrast with water and those which designate cultivated land. Even in English the normal term for land close to water is ‘shore’ or ‘coast,’ and therefore one may translate {S:04001402400018} as ‘the boat was already far away from the shore.’ Similarly, in {S:04402702700042} one may translate ‘we were getting close to shore.’
