| roof | 1. To cover with a roof. "I have not seen the remains of any Roman buildings that have not been roofed with vaults or arches." (Addison) 2. To inclose in a house; figuratively, to shelter. "Here had we now our country's honor roofed." (Shak) Origin: Roofed; Roofing. 1. The cover of any building, including the roofing (see Roofing) and all the materials and construction necessary to carry and maintain the same upon the walls or other uprights. In the case of a building with vaulted ceilings protected by an outer roof, some writers call the vault the roof, and the outer protection the roof mask. It is better, however, to consider the vault as the ceiling only, in cases where it has farther covering. 2. That which resembles, or corresponds to, the covering or the ceiling of a house; as, the roof of a cavern; the roof of the mouth. "The flowery roof Showered roses, which the morn repaired." (Milton) 3. <chemical> The surface or bed of rock immediately overlying a bed of coal or a flat vein. Bell roof, French roof, etc. See Plate. Origin: OE. Rof, AS. Hrf top, roof; akin to D.

| roof nucleus | The most medial of the cerebellar nuclei, lying medial to the interpositus nucleus, near the midline, in the white matter underneath the vermis of the cerebellar cortex. It receives the axons of Purkinje cells from all parts of the vermis. Its major projection is to the vestibular nuclei and medullary reticular formation. Synonym: nucleus fastigii, fastigatum, nucleus tecti, roof nucleus, tectal nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| roof of fourth ventricle | Roof of fourth ventricle, formed in its upper part by the superior medullary velum stretching between the two brachia conjunctiva (superior cerebellar peduncles), in its lower part by the inferior medullary velum composed of the choroid membrane and choroid plexus of the fourth ventricle. Synonym: roof of fourth ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| roof of mouth | 1. <anatomy> The roof of the mouth. The fixed portion, or palate proper, supported by the maxillary and palatine bones, is called the hard palate to distinguish it from the membranous and muscular curtain which separates the cavity of the mouth from the pharynx and is called the soft palate, or velum. 2. Relish; taste; liking; a sense originating in the mistaken notion that the palate is the organ of taste. "Hard task! to hit the palate of such guests." (Pope) 3.
