rorulent (RO-ru-lent) - adj., covered with, or appearing to be covered with, dew.


Like our car in the winter. Though not today -- today it looks like it's covered with rain. Sometimes, it even gets cold enough the dew drops freeze and we get a solid rorulency. From Latin rorulentus, from roris, the, um, I think that's the genetive of ros, dew.

My bogus Latin word-cracking instinct suggests that rorulent:ros::emolument:emo.

(I'm sure that's absolutely wrong.)
