E. nose thrill , Early nesethirl , nesthyrylle , nasethirl , nesethrull , etc., nosthyrl , næsthyrl , pl. nosthyrlu , næsthyrlu , and reduced nosterle (= OFries. nosterle , nosterlen, nosterline ), lit. 'nose-hole,' nosu , nasu , nose, + thyrl , thyrel , a hole: see nosel and thirl , thrill. The second element became obs. as an independent word, and suffered corruption in the compound.] 1. One of the external openings of the nose; a nasal orifice; a naris or narial aperture. The word is commonly restricted to the external opening. Nostrils are paired, but may be so united as to appear more or le as one. They usually present more or le directly forward, often sidewise, le frequently upward, seldom downward as in man. They are found in almost every shape that a hole can take, and details of their configuration and position often furnish zoological characters. In animals below mammals the nostrils are usually, if not always, motionle . In most mammals they are mobile, much more so than in man, being furnished with well-developed muscles for dilatation and contraction or even complete closure. Thus, among cetaceans and various other aquatic mammals the nostrils are perfectly valvular, guarding against the entrance of water. In those animals whose nose is a tactile organ the nostrils are sometimes fringed with proce es like tentacles, as in the star-nosed mole. The nostrils of birds are often prominent horny tubes, as those of petrels and some goatsuckers. See cuts under bill , fulínar , and Condylura .

When not qualifies a verb, either individually or as the main word of a proposition, it now almost invariably follows the verb; but in forms compounded with auxiliaries, it follows the auxiliary, or the first of them: as, I think not: I do not think so; I should not have thought so. Except in elevated style, the use of not is now almost always accompanied by the use of an auxiliary: as, 'I do not see it,' for 'I see it not.' Not, spoken with emphasis, often stands for the negation of a whole sentence referred to: as, I hope not (that is, I hope that the state of things you de scribe does not exist).

[In colloquial use not, following an auxiliary, is often contracted, as can't, don't, shan't, won't, isn't, ain't, aren't, for cannot, do not, shall not, will not ( woll not), is not, am not, are not. Don't is often incorrectly used for doesn't, and ain't for isn't.] - Not at all. See at all (c), under all. Not but, being equal to two negatives, is a weak affirmative; hence cannot but is equivalent to must. See but1, conj. To pleye and walke on fote, Nat but with fyve or six of hir meynee. Chaucer , Squire's Tale, 1. 383. Not but that. See that, conj., 1.- Not only. See only. -Not that. See that, conj., 1. Not the le , not le on that account.
