schnozzle
Slang for nose
Schnozzle is a playful, slightly old-fashioned slang term for nose, especially a large or prominent one.
The word gained currency through comedian Jimmy Durante, whose prominent nose earned him the nickname "The Schnozzle." Like schnoz, it derives from Yiddish and carries an affectionate rather than insulting tone: Look at the schnozzle on that guy.
