n.

1. Exciting or mysterious attractiveness usually associated with striking physical beauty, luxury, or celebrity.

2. Archaic Magic cast by a spell; enchantment.

[Scots, magic spell, alteration of grammar (from the association of learning with magic).]

Usage Note: Many words, such as honor, vapor, and labor, are usually spelled with an -or ending in American English but with an -our ending in British English. The preferred spelling of glamour, however, is -our, making it an exception to the usual American practice. The adjective is more often spelled glamorous in both American and British usage.
