Dew-drops which have undergone deposition and frozen into ice crystals to form a white deposit on an exposed surface, when the air is cold and moist.
A cover of minute ice crystals on objects that are exposed to the air. Frost is formed by the same process as dew, except that the temperature of the frosted object is below freezing.
The cold weather that causes these ice crystals to form.
Coldness or insensibility; severity or rigidity of character.
The act of freezing; the congelation of water or other liquid.
A shade of white, like that of frost.
A disappointment; a cheat.
To cover with frost.
To become covered with frost.
To coat (something, e.g. a cake) with icing to resemble frost.
To anger or annoy.
To sharpen (the points of a horse's shoe) to prevent it from slipping on ice.
The white particles formed by the congelation of dew; white frost.
The act of freezing; - applied chiefly to the congelation of water; congelation of fluids.
The state or temperature of the air which occasions congelation, or the freezing of water; severe cold or freezing weather.
Frozen dew; - called also hoarfrost or white frost.
Coldness or insensibility; severity or rigidity of character.
To injure by frost; to freeze, as plants.
To cover with hoarfrost; to produce a surface resembling frost upon, as upon cake, metals, or glass; as, glass may be frosted by exposure to hydrofluoric acid.
To roughen or sharpen, as the nail heads or calks of horseshoes, so as to fit them for frosty weather.
