foreside (plural foresides)

  1. The front or fore part of anything; front face of a thing.
    • 2007 July 10, Natalie Angier, “Small, Yes, but Mighty: The Molecule Called Water”, in New York Times:
      Because of water’s atomic architecture, the tendency of its comparatively forceful oxygen centerpiece to cling greedily to electrons as it consorts with its two meeker hydrogen mates, the entire molecule ends up polarized, with slight electromagnetic charges on its foreside and aft.
  2. The outside or external covering.
