glorev.

Forms: Also 1700s–1800s gloar, glooar, 1800s gloor.
Etymology: Middle English glōren = Dutch gloren , Low German glôren to glow (of embers), West Frisian gloarje , Swedish and Norwegian dialect glora to glow, stare, Icelandic glóra to gleam, glare (as the eyes of a cat); apparently < the root glō- : see glow v.1 A form gluren of like meaning is found in Dutch and Low German, but may be of different origin. Sense 2 is identical with that of glower v., but the words cannot be immediately related to each other. Recent dialect glossaries show that gloar or gloor (glooar) is still in common use in Yorkshire, Lancashire, and Lincolnshire; for the variation in the vowel compare floor ( < Old English flór) and moor ( < Old English mór).
Obsolete exc. dialect.
1. intransitive. To shine, glitter, glisten. (= glare v. 1) Obsolete.
