Word: bluff-headed Part of Speech: adj 1. Built with the stem nearly vertical, as opposed to one with a rake that extends far beyond the keel. Example: Some are constructed with a view to carrying a large cargo, and are broad, and what is technically termed "bluff-headed," whilst others are designed for fast sailing. Example: […] of a bluff-headed boat beating to windward in a choppy sea. 2. Having a broad, precipitous front or face. Labels: broadly Example: Do you not see that low bluff-headed mountain? Example: Leaving behind us the town at the bottom of its deep bay, we set out to explore a bluff-headed parallelogramical promontory, bounded by Thurso Bay on the one hand, and Murkle Bay on the other, and which presents to the open sea, in the space that stretches between, an undulating line of iron-bound coast, exposed to the roll of the northern ocean. 3. Having a rounded head with a flattish snout. Example: The Alpine mastiffs resemble the dogs of Newfoundland, but are somewhat more bluff-headed. Example: The members of this subgenus may always be readily distinguished by their bluff-headed and arvicoline aspect. 4. Having a rounded tip, as opposed to a flat or pointed tip. Labels: broadly Example: Mr. Crozier prefers to employ a bluff headed projectile, formed with the punch in a slight concave with rounded outer edges; as that shape will not detract from the weight of the head so much as the spherical, and if the projectile can be thrown without rotary motion, a hexagonal punch might be employed. Example: The hole made by a round or bluff-headed shot is of the same conical form as that made by a flat-headed projectile, but with a pointed shot the sides of the hole are more nearly parallel, the reason probably being, that a conical hole, of small diameter, is at first broken out by the action of the point, and then enlarged and made parallel by the body of the shot following through. 5. Having a broad face and gruff manners, especially when not exceptionally clever or assertive. Example: I beseech every man who may read this to be perfectly convinced that I feel no pity for these bluff-headed fellows.
