Complete Definition of "powdery"

English

Adjective
powdery

  1. Of or pertaining to powder.

#:1872 We were plowing through great deeps of powdery alkali dust that rose in thick clouds and floated across the plain like smoke from a burning house. We were coated with it like millers; so were the coach, the mules, the mail-bags, the driver -- we and the sage-brush and the other scenery were all one monotonous color. � Mark Twain, Roughing It, Chapter 21.
