Part of a helmet projecting to protect the nose; a nose
guard.
Having a quality imparted by means of the nose; and
specifically, made by lowering the soft palate, in some cases with
closure of the oral passage, the voice thus issuing (wholly or
partially) through the nose, as in the consonants m, n, ng (see Guide
to Pronunciation, // 20, 208); characterized by resonance in the nasal

The rain spun in the yellow arc lights over the café parking lot. It was empty inside, except for a fat Negro woman whom I could see through the service window in the kitchen, and a pretty, redheaded waitress in her early twenties, dressed in a pink uniform with her hair tied up on her freckled neck. She was obviously tired, but she was polite and smiled at me when she took my order, and I felt a sense of guilt, almost shame, at my susceptibility and easy fondness for a young woman's smile. Because if you're forty-nine and unmarried or a widower or if you've simply chosen to live alone, you're easily flattered by a young woman's seeming attention to you, and you forget that it is often simply a deference to your age.
