Example sentences for: crome

How can you use “crome” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • (Crome is the name of a house, just as Wuthering Heights is.)

  • An amusing example of this kind of semantic confusion will be found in Chapter XX of Aldous Huxley's Crome Yellow . From boyhood the romantic, poetically inclined hero, Denis Stone, found the word carminative particularly evocative.

  • Also in this group, I would say, are Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights (1846), not “Weathering,” “Withering,” or any similar fancy, and, admittedly more trickily, Aldous Huxley's Crome Yellow (1921), not `Chrome,” although of course the pun on this word is intentional.
