— Noi"some*ly, adv.
— Noi"some*ness, n.
Syn. — Noxious; unwholesome; insalubrious; mischievous; destructive. — Noisome, Noxious. These words have to a great extent been interchanged; but there is a tendency to make a distinction between them, applying noxious to things that inflict evil directly; as, a noxious plant, noxious practices, etc., and noisome to things that operate with a remoter influence; as, noisome vapors, a noisome pestilence, etc. Noisome has the additional sense of disqusting. A garden may be free from noxious weeds or animals; but, if recently covered with manure, it may be filled with a noisome smell.
NOISY
Nois"y, a. [Compar. Noisier; superl. Noisiest.] Etym: [From Noise.]
1. Making a noise, esp. a loud sound; clamorous; vociferous; turbulent; boisterous; as, the noisy crowd.
