glam·our also glam·or (gl m  r)n. 1. An air of compelling charm, romance, and excitement, especially when delusively alluring. 2. Archaic A magic 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. |
