[syn: port, larboard]
The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48:
Larboard \Lar"board`\, n. [Lar- is of uncertain origin, possibly
   the same as lower, i. e., humbler in rank, because the
   starboard side is considered by mariners as higher in rank;
   cf. D. laag low, akin to E. low. See Board, n., 8.] (Naut.)
   The left-hand side of a ship to one on board facing toward
   the bow; port; -- opposed to starboard.
   [1913 Webster]
   Note: Larboard is a nearly obsolete term, having been
         superseded by port to avoid liability of confusion
         with starboard, owing to similarity of sound.
         [1913 Webster]
