Flash
\Flash\ (fl[a^]sh), v. i. [imp. & p. p.

(fl[a^]sht); p. pr. & vb. n.
Flashing.] [Cf. OE. flaskien,
vlaskien to pour, sprinkle, dial. Sw. flasa to blaze, E.

1. To burst or break forth with a sudden and transient flood
of flame and light; as, the lighting flashes vividly; the
powder flashed.
[1913 Webster]
2. To break forth, as a sudden flood of light; to burst
instantly and brightly on the sight; to show a momentary
brilliancy; to come or pass like a flash.
[1913 Webster]

words of unnumbered struggles. --Talfourd.

[1913 Webster]
flash in the pan, a failure or a poor performance,
especially after a normal or auspicious start; also, a
person whose initial performance appears augur success but
who fails to achieve anything notable. From 4th
pan, n.,
sense 3 -- part of a flintlock. Occasionally, the powder
in the pan of a flintlock would flash without conveying
the fire to the charge, and the ball would fail to be
discharged. Thus, a good or even spectacular beginning
that eventually achieves little came to be called a flash
in the pan.
To flash in the pan, to fail of success, especially after a
normal or auspicious start. [Colloq.] See under
Flash, a
burst of light. --Bartlett.
[1913 Webster +PJC]
Syn:
Flash,
Glitter,
Gleam,
Glisten,
Glister.
Usage: Flash differs from glitter and gleam, denoting a flood
or wide extent of light. The latter words may express
the issuing of light from a small object, or from a
pencil of rays. Flash differs from other words, also,
in denoting suddenness of appearance and
disappearance. Flashing differs from exploding or
disploding in not being accompanied with a loud
report. To glisten, or glister, is to shine with a
soft and fitful luster, as eyes suffused with tears,
or flowers wet with dew.
[1913 Webster]
