• SWELL
1.
  • v. Intransitively, tumescere: intumescere: extumescere (☞ contumescere very late); turgescere (☞ inturgescere very late): crescere: accrescere (to grow): augeri, augescere (to increase).
  • To be swollen, turgere: tumere (Döderlein makes turgere denote actual fulness, tumere apparent fulness, but real emptiness; but this does not always hold: tumere seems, however, to be used especially of unnatural, unhealthy cases; turgere, though not exclusively, of natural, healthy ones: the seed, corn, a grape, etc., swells, semen turget; frumenta turgent; gemmae in laeto palmite turgent; uva turget mero: the body is swollen with, poison, corpus tumet veneno). Her eyes are swelled with weeping, lumina turgent gemitu (Propertius): his face is swelled from a blow, ora turgent ab ictu (Ov.).
  • Figuratively. To swell with passion, turgere (Plaut.): turgescere: tumere (Cic.; of swelling with any vicious passion); (vitrea) bilis turgescit (Persius). To be swelled (with pride, etc.), inflatum, elatum esse (tumidum esse, in Sen. and Tac., but rare). My heart swells with joy, laetitia magna perfruor: laetitia or gaudio exsulto.
  • Transitively, tumefacere (to cause to swell): augere (to enlarge; e.g., flumen): implere (to fill): inflare: inflationem habere, facere, or parere (to inflate): to swell the sails, vela tendere or intendere; vela implere (to fill them): swollen sails, vela turgida or tumida (the former when they have caught the wind, the latter when filled with useless air; so Döderlein, but perhaps with too nice a distinction).
2. s. (of the sea), aestus (maris).
