Definition of rotor in English:

rotor

noun ˈrəʊtəˈroʊdər

- He raised his suntanned right arm to his face and shielded his eyes from the swirling clouds of dirt and dust kicked up by the Dauphin's rotors.
- I could hear the thwapping of helicopter rotors, the grinding of tank treads, the sound of RPG's and bazookas.

- ‘The bigger the rotor, the more wind you can collect,’ Sagrillo explained.
- Standing at the base of one of the towers, there's only a gentle whoosh as the rotors sweep around.

  Rear rotors are vented on the GT and solid on the V - 6.
  I immediately changed the oil, plugs, distributor cap, rotor arm, and a friendly independent specialist fixed the exhaust.
  The heavy impact damaged the rotor arm and though he carried on, Andrew was handicapped by a misfiring engine and could only struggle home sixth.
  After 20 minutes he decided the problem was with the rotor arm, and fashioned some wire underneath it to solve the problem.
  For example, if D hires a car to P and then removes the rotor arm from it rendering it inoperable, he may be guilty of criminal damage.
  This time we had lost the rotor arm as well and Phil had to sprint back 100 yards to find it.
  It might have been tougher for Godfrey had the Cooper S of his competitors not lost nearly 10 minutes right at the start of the Radnor stage with a broken rotor arm.
  While Freestone had a good run on his first experience of the stage, they had a nightmare when a broken rotor arm cost them over two minutes.
