What is the meaning of word pandosto?

"Pandosto" is an archaic word, and while it might sound familiar, it doesn't have a standard definition in modern English.

It's most likely you're thinking of "Pandosto: The Triumph of Time," which is the original title of "The Winter's Tale" by William Shakespeare.

Here's what you need to know:

* "Pandosto" was a novel written by Robert Greene in 1588.

* Shakespeare's "The Winter's Tale" is a play that heavily borrowed from Greene's novel, re-imagining the story and characters.

* While "Pandosto" was a popular name for the play in Shakespeare's time, it's now rarely used.

Essentially, "Pandosto" is a synonym for "The Winter's Tale" but refers specifically to the novel by Robert Greene, not the play by Shakespeare.
