Example: Cow-pox, or, as I have proposed to name them, the Vacciola scutellata and leprosa, as nothing within my sphere of observation has tended to retard the progress of the new inoculation so much as the difficulty which inexperienced inoculators find in learning to distinguish the two diseases, which unhappily the vacciolous virus is capable of producing. Example: In the year 1801, a gentleman inoculated his own two boys and two of his servants with vacciolous matter, that was sent by Dr. Pearson; on the eighth, tenth, and twelfth days I Saw their arms, and was well satisfied that vacciolation had taken place.

Innoculation with cowpox (the vacciolous virus) in order to provide immunity from smallpox. Labels: countable, uncountable Example: I presume the author means by 'after vaccination,' what I should express by after insertion of vacciolous matter, or after the attempt to vacciolate; and yet, when he mentions that zealots on one side have called the eruptions after it by one name, and those on the other by another; I am at a loss to comprehend him; because, if it were only after the attempt, the advocates of vacciolation would have no cause of surprize or disappointment in finding small-pox; the opponents no triumph. Example: (see title)

Word: class tourism Part of Speech: noun 1. The practice by members of the middle class of visiting working class areas or slums out of curiosity or for entertainment. Labels: uncountable Example: From the beginning, professional photography typically meant the broader kind of class tourism, with most photographers combining surveys of social abjection with portraits of celebrities or commodities (high fashion, advertising) or studies of the nude. Example: 2002, R. M. Vaughan, interview transcribed in Michelle Berry and Natalee Caple (editors), The Notebooks: Interviews and New Fiction from Contemporary Writers, Anchor Canada, p. 439, I despise those books. They’re nothing but the worst sort of class tourism. The idea that Atlantic Canadians are the colourful peasantry of the nation enrages me. 2.

Labels: uncountable Example: The matter of whether Hawaii is to be given over to “mass” or “class” tourism will obviously have been settled by then, and in favor of the former, for the early 1970s will see the 500-passenger “Jumbo” jets come winging in. Example: 1971, Mary McCarthy, Birds of America, New York: Harcourt, Brace, Jovanovich, “A Sibylline Interlude,” p. 284, I feared you might be one of those snobs who distinguish between class tourism and mass tourism.

Labels: obsolete Example: The half-opened mouth, and consequently the vacuitous expression of countenance, the thickness of breathing, which sometimes could be heard across the room, and the nasal speech, all plainly indicated the difficulty she laboured under. Example: Persons thus troubled are obliged at all times to keep their lips apart, or their mouth open, to enable them to breathe, and in time the features acquire a contracted and vacuitous expression, even in the most intelligent. 2.

Example: He took Miss Lynes to supper; he outshone himself in vacuitous small-talk during the whole time that the meal lasted ; he held undisputed possession of her during that hour especially dear to flirtation, between the time when supper ended and the departure of the guests. Example: From his excellency, the President of this great Republic, down to the President of the Rural Debating Society, a patient and long-suffering people has been pelted, so to speak, by them with this too often vacuitous literature for lo, these many years. 3.
