  1. (Dalmatia, Bosnia) woad (plant and dye)
    • 1984, Alberto Fortis, translated by Mate Maras and Darko Novaković, Put po Dalmaciji[1], Zagreb: Globus, page 43:
      Tako dobivaju i lijepu tamnomodru boju miješanjem sača sušena u hladovini s vrlo čistom cijeđi; i ta smjesa vri nekoliko sati, pa se zatim pusti da se ohladi prije nego što se u nju ubace sukna za bojenje.
      So one adds also fair dark blue dye mingling dried woad in the shade with very clean lye; and this mixture boils for a few hours, for it is then left to cool before cloth is cast into it for dying.
Declension
