What do you mean by neighbour?

Answer 1

"Neighbour" is the British-English spelling of "neighbor".

As a noun, "neighbor" can mean a person who lives near another, a person or thing that is near another, one's fellow human being (Be nice to your neighbor!), a person who shows kindliness or helpfulness toward his or her fellow human beings (To be a neighbor to someone in distress), as a term of address, especially as a greeting to a stranger (Howdy, neighbor!).

As an adjective, "neighbor" means situated or living near another (Our neighbor county or shire).

As a verb used with object, "neighbor" can mean to live or be situated near to, adjoin, border on, or to place or bring near.

As a verb used without object, "neighbor" can mean to live or be situated nearby, or to associate with or as with one's neighbors; be neighborly or friendly (often followed by with).

Note: The Scottish euphemism the good neighbors, meaning "the fairies" is attested from the 1580s.
