"repulse" meaning in All languages combined

See repulse on Wiktionary

Noun [English]

IPA: /ɹɪˈpʌls/ Audio: LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-repulse.wav Forms: repulses [plural]
Etymology: Borrowed from Latin repulsus, from repellere (“to drive back”), from re- (“back”) + pellere (“to drive”). For spelling, as in pulse, the -e (on -lse) is so the end is pronounced /ls/, rather than /lz/ as in pulls, and does not change the vowel (‘u’). Compare else, false, convulse.
