A _herald_ is a sign of things to come. A chilly day in October is a _herald_ of the coming winter.

Years ago, a _herald_ was an official who announced important news to the people. This is why many newspapers today have _herald_ in their name. Nowadays, the noun _herald_ refers to an early indicator that something is about to happen. _Herald_ can also be used as a verb meaning “to praise” or “to greet enthusiastically.” If you’ve been away from home for a long time, your family might herald your return, especially if you come bearing gifts.
