teary

adj : with eyes full of tears [syn: {teary-eyed}, {watery-eyed}]

ternary

A description of an {operator} taking three

arguments. The only common example is {C}'s ?: operator which

is used in the form "CONDITION ? EXP1 : EXP2" and returns EXP1

if CONDITION is true else EXP2. {Haskell} has a similar "if

CONDITION then EXP1 else EXP2" operator.

See also {unary}, {binary}.
