(TO HOLLOW)
To shout; to hoot; to cry out loudly.--Todd's Johnson. This word is generally written and pronounced hollow, which Dr. Johnson says is incorrect. In England as well as in the United States it is vulgarly pronounced holler or hollar.
List, list; I hear
Some far-off halloo break the silent air.--Milton.
He with his hounds comes hollowing from the stable,
Makes love with nods, and kneels beneath a table.--Pope.
You hollered so, and scared Obed, he's scared now.--Margaret, p. 53.
