Definition
Plural form of clangour; multiple loud, ringing metallic sounds or noises.
Etymology
From 'clangour,' the British spelling of the noun meaning loud metallic sound, from Latin 'clangere.' The plural adds '-s' to indicate more than one instance of the sound.
Kelly Says
Notice how British English preserves the 'u' in 'honour,' 'colour,' and 'clangour'—these words kept their French-influenced spelling, while Americans simplified them. It's like the UK and US took different paths at a language crossroads!
