  Vestibule \Ves"ti*bule\, v. t.
     To furnish with a vestibule or vestibules. --Brander
     Matthews.
     [Webster 1913 Suppl.]

From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.44 :   [ gcide ]

  Vestibule \Ves"ti*bule\, n. [L. vestibulum, of uncertain origin:
     cf. F. vestibule.]
     The porch or entrance into a house; a hall or antechamber
     next the entrance; a lobby; a porch; a hall.
     [1913 Webster]
  
     Vestibule of the ear. (Anat.) See under Ear.
  
     Vestibule of the vulva (Anat.), a triangular space between
        the nymph[ae], in which the orifice of the urethra is
        situated.
  
     Vestibule train (Railroads), a train of passenger cars
        having the space between the end doors of adjacent cars
        inclosed, so as to admit of leaving the doors open to
        provide for intercommunication between all the cars.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     Syn: Hall; passage.
  
     Usage: Vestibule, Hall, Passage. A vestibule is a small
            apartment within the doors of a building. A hall is
            the first large apartment beyond the vestibule, and,
            in the United States, is often long and narrow,
            serving as a passage to the several apartments. In
            England, the hall is generally square or oblong, and a
            long, narrow space of entrance is called a passage,
            not a hall, as in America. Vestibule is often used in
            a figurative sense to denote a place of entrance.
            ``The citizens of Rome placed the images of their
            ancestors in the vestibules of their houses.''
            --Bolingbroke
