navarin

/ ˈnævərɪn; navarɛ̃ /

noun

Origin of navarin¹

from French

This success and the capture of very strong trenches to the north of the Navarin Farm drove the Germans to desperate efforts.

It seems we had to wait for artillery before making the attack on Navarin itself.

A Russian torpedo boat in shelter behind the Navarin, now seeing its chance, darted out and launched its projectile.

During the first few minutes following this sudden disaster to the enemy the firing ceased, and the Navarin ran up signals.

Lieut. Kempe returned from an unsuccessful excursion to Navarin island in search of guanacoes.
